GIPR and type 2 diabetes mellitus: Mendelian randomisation analyses provided evidence for associations of lower genetically proxied type 2 diabetes liability at the GIP and GIPR genes with lower BMI (estimate in SD units −0.16, 95% CI −0.30, −0.02), C-reactive protein (−0.13, 95% CI −0.19, −0.08) and triacylglycerol levels (−0.17, 95% CI −0.22, −0.12), and higher HDL-cholesterol levels (0.19, 95% CI 0.14, 0.25).
