MTHFR C677T polymorphism and T2DM risk in Iraqi Kurds: a cross-sectional study
The MTHFR C677T polymorphism is strongly associated with T2DM in Iraqi Kurdish patients, with the T allele linked to adverse metabolic profiles and a higher risk of complications. These findings highlight the potential clinical value of incorporating genetic screening into early risk assessment and personalized management strategies in high-risk populations.
