The remaining 3 SNPs, rs11063069 near CCND2 and rs8108269 near GIPR, which were identified in sex-differentiated European GWAS [16], and rs8090011 in LAMA1, which was shown to be associated with non-obese European type 2 diabetes [15], were not associated with type 2 diabetes in the un-stratified analyses in this study (p ≥ 0.05, adjusted for sex, age and BMI; Tables 4 and 5). Here, CCND2 is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
