Q: Question: Do novel meta-analysis-derived type 2 diabetes risk loci determine prediabetic phenotypes?
Answer: In contrast to the first series of GWA-derived type 2 diabetes candidate SNPs, we could not detect reliable associations of the novel risk loci with prediabetic phenotypes. Possible weak effects of ADAMTS9 SNP rs4607103 and VEGFA SNP rs9472138 on insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion, respectively, await further confirmation by larger studies.

A: no

Q: Question: Are arterial stiffness and pulse wave reflection increased in patients suffering from severe periodontitis?
Answer: The results of this study confirm the association between periodontal inflammation and increased cardiovascular risk shown by impaired vascular health in case of severe periodontitis. As impaired vascular health is a common finding in patients suffering from severe periodontal disease a concomitant routine cardiovascular evaluation may be advised.

A:
yes
