Considering the genotype distribution of LRP5 4037C>T in the NG and T1DM groups according to the genetic model, a significant association with T1DM susceptibility was found for codominant (p < 0.001), dominant (p < 0.001) and log-additive (p < 0.001) models (Table 2). The gene discussed is LRP5; the disease is type 1 diabetes mellitus.
