Figure 1. Association between increasing number of type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci, partitioned according to tertiles, and area under the curve for glucose. T2D: type 2 diabetes. Results were adjusted for sex and age. Number of participants per tertile for group of offspring: first tertile (n = 44), second tertile (n = 38), third tertile (n = 29). Number of participants per tertile for group of controls: first tertile (n = 33), second tertile (n = 38), third tertile (n = 34).
