Screening of LEP gene polymorphisms as a risk factor for obesity and type 2 diabetes in Iraqis

The prevalence of obesity and diabetes changes dramatically with lifestyle and unequal risk among individuals have made scientists interested to understand how the environment interferes with genetic factors to make it so-called genetic predisposition. This study aimed to explore wherethe most variable region is in leptin gene and analyse  microsatellite repeats with direct sequencing in Iraqis...

Meat Consumption as a Risk Factor for Type 2 Diabetes

Disease risk factors identified in epidemiological studies serve as important public health tools, helping clinicians identify individuals who may benefit from more aggressive screening or risk-modification procedures, allowing policymakers to prioritize intervention programs, and encouraging at-risk individuals to modify behavior and improve their health.
