RS Lindsay, RL Hanson, C Wiedrich, WC Knowler, PH … - Diabetes, 2003 - Am Diabetes Assoc The insulin gene variable number tandem repeat (INS-VNTR) is proposed to exert pleiotropic
genetic effects on birth weight and diabetes susceptibility. In our study, we examined the influence
of a polymorphism in tight linkage disequilibrium with INS-VNTR (−23Hph1) on birth ... Cited by 50 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
