This study assessed hemoglobin A1c and fasting glucose levels, validating known loci (FN3K, SPC25, MTNR1B, and FOXA2) and discovering new genes, including MAEA and PRC1. Additionally, we found that diabetes, blood lipids, and liver- and kidney-related traits share genetic foundations with glycemic traits. The gene discussed is SPC25; the disease is diabetes mellitus.
