“…Regarding the inverse relationship of HDL levels with rs266729 polymorphism and to our knowledge, it is the first investigation at which such observation was reported, Zadjali et al 2013, andSun et al 2008, have studied this relationship and found no association. So how does adiponectin affect HDL levels?…”

“…Although studies on ADIPOQ genetic variations in Arab populations are still limited and there are no metaanalyses showing the frequency of Arabs carrying variants of the ADIPOQ gene, several researchers have reported that a statistically significant number of Arab obese diabetic patients carry variants of the ADIPOQ gene (73,77).…”

“…Of interest is that one of the variants that showed a strong association with T2DM was the same variant (rs266729) found in the Jordanian study (73,78). A recent cross-sectional analysis examined the association of genetic variants of the ADIPOQ gene with obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and hypertension in 328 people from one extended Omani family living in an area where first-cousin marriages represented 50% of all marriages (77). The prevalence of obesity and diabetes were 17% and 27% respectively.…”
