Muscle Strength, Genetic Risk, and Type 2 Diabetes Among Individuals of South Asian Ancestry: A <scp>UK</scp> Biobank Study
Polygenic risk scores for T2D could have great prognostic value in preemptively identifying individuals of South Asian ancestry at high genetic risk of T2D. Regardless of T2D genetic risk, greater muscle strength is linked to lower T2D risk and HbA1c levels.
