Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous and polygenic disease. Previous studies have leveraged the highly polygenic and pleiotropic nature of T2D variants to partition the heterogeneity of T2D, in order to stratify patient risk and gain mechanistic insight. We expanded on these approaches by performing colocalization across GWAS traits while assessing the causality and directionality of genetic associations.

Purtscher-like retinopathy in a 19-year-old with maturity-onset diabetes of the young: A case report
We report the first case of Purtscher-like retinopathy in a patient with 17q12 deletion-associated maturity-onset diabetes of the young. The presentation of our patient’s multiple diabetic complications along visual symptoms suggests Purtscher-like retinopathy can be a sequela of uncontrolled diabetes. Purtscher-like retinopathy is a rare but possible consideration in diabetic patients who present with acute-onset vision loss.
