Background:
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were discovered in HBV-related gestational diabetes mellitus, but it still unclear whether these SNPs are associated with the susceptibility of HBV-related gestational diabetes mellitus.
Methods:
The investigation of the association between CDKN2A polymorphisms and occurrence of HBV-related gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Chinese was assessed in the case-control study. A total of 480 pregnant patients with HBV and 530 pregnant controls were consecutively recruited from January 2015 to December 2016. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) method was applied to measure genotyping for the detection of CDKN2A.
Results:
The significant differences in the frequency of CDKN2A genotype distributions, rs10811661 and rs564398, were found by Chi-square test. Using conditional logistic analysis, individuals carrying the CDKN2A rs10811661 TC and TT genotypes and CDKN2A rs564398 AA and AG genotypes were related to a greater risk of HBV-related GDM compared with the genotype.
Conclusions:
In conclusion, the CDKN2A rs10811661 and rs564398 polymorphisms showed association with a greater risk of HBV-related GDM in a Chinese population.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin, and individuals with...
Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
