Major genetic effects on airway-parenchymal dysanapsis of the lung: the Humboldt family study.

abstract：:Nontraditional glycemic biomarkers, including fructosamine, glycated albumin, and 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) are potential alternatives or complement to traditional measures of hyperglycemia. Genetic variants are associated with these biomarkers, but the heritability, or extent to which genetics control their variat...
