Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair gene XRCC1 and the risk of diabetic polyneuropathy

Key Points

• Genetic polymorphisms in the XRCC1 gene are associated with increased risk of diabetic polyneuropathy.
• Specifically, the study finds a significant correlation of certain variants with the onset of symptoms.
• Observational analysis of genetic data shows a clear pattern linking polymorphisms to diabetic complications.
• Highlighting these genetic associations may improve understanding and prevention strategies for diabetic polyneuropathy.
