<i>SIRT1</i> rs7896005 polymorphism affects major vascular outcomes, not all‐cause mortality, in Caucasians with type 2 diabetes: A 13‐year observational study

Abstract

The rs7896005 SNP of SIRT1 might play a role in cardiovascular disease, mainly CHD risk in T2DM. Results call for larger association studies as well as studies to ascertain mechanisms by which this variant confers increased risk.
