In addition, the association between PPARGC1A gene rs8192678 C>T polymorphism and CMR has been slightly studied through individual cardiovascular risk factors such as body composition (Mirzaei et al., 2012; Franks et al., 2014; Zamaninour et al., 2018), type 2 diabetes-related parameters (Zhu et al., 2017), inflammatory markers and lipid profile (Mirzaei et al., 2012), and blood pressure (Vimaleswaran et al., 2008). Here, PPARGC1A is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
