Common variants related to serum uric acid concentrations are associated with glucose metabolism and insulin secretion in a Chinese population.

BACKGROUND:Elevated serum uric acid concentration is an independent risk factor and predictor of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Whether the uric acid-associated genes have an impact on T2D remains unclear.
