Moderate/severe periodontitis patients with rs1501299-GG and rs1137100-GG have the highest T2DM risk after adjusting for age, gender, BMI, WHR, smoking status, alcohol consumption, economic status, and hypertension (AOR = 20.39, 95%CI: 2.64-157.26).
Our meta-analysis suggests that the rs1501299 polymorphism may play a protective role in hypertension in Caucasian subgroup; however, this finding requires further study.
The SNP rs1501299 (G276T) in ADIPOQ gene was found associated with the presence of HTN in MetS (odds ratio for GG+GT vs. TT = 2.46; 95% CI: 1.14-5.3, p = 0.02), but not rs2241766 (T45G).
