A single SNP in ~10% of US African Ancestry individuals causes a systematic decrease in HbA1c and a dramatic under treatment of diabetes. In @NatureMedicine led by @JosephBreeyear @JackieHellwege @genepiman_giri @toddledwards @VUMCDiscoveries nature.com/articles/s41591-0…
Check out our new paper out today in Nature Medicine. G6PD deficiency alleles are associated with increased risk of diabetes complications and the increased risk is likely due to reliance on HbA1c to make treatment decisions for diabetes patients:

The best advice I got when I started over 15 years ago as an Asst. Prof. You must complain at every difficulty you face, but you must perform inspite of those difficulties. Because unless you complain system will not improve, and unless you perform, no one will listen to you.
