Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with significant cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. A single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the acetyl‐coenzyme A carboxylase beta (ACACB) gene, rs2268388, reproducibly associates with diabetic nephropathy (DN). ACACB regulates fatty‐acid oxidation. As such, we assessed whether ACACB SNP rs2268388 was associated with CV disease in Chinese individuals with T2D.
