While shared genetic factors contribute to this comorbidity, evidence from Asian cohorts remains fragmented, with limited focus on population-specific variants. This meta-analysis synthesizes evidence on genetic variants associated with CAD risk in Asian patients with T2DM. Methods: We systematically searched several databases according to the PRISMA statement and checklist. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effects models, with heterogeneity assessed via I2 and Cochran\u2019s Q, and publication bias via funnel plots and Egger\u2019s test. Results: In total, data on 11,268 subjects were reviewed, including 4668 cases and 6600 controls. Among 950 identified studies, 18 met eligibility criteria, and 14 studies provided sufficient data for the meta-analysis. The random-effects pooled estimate across all studied variants was not statistically significant (OR = 1.16 [95% CI: 0.68\u20132.00]; z = 0.56, p = 0.58). However, analysis of individual loci revealed gene-specific associations with CAD among this population: PCSK1 gene (OR = 2.12 [95% CI: 1.26\u20133.52]; p &lt; 0.05; weight = 8.77%), GLP1R gene (OR = 2.25 [95% CI: 1.27\u20133.97]; p &lt; 0.01; weight = 8.62%). ADIPOQ gene (OR = 8.00 [95% CI: 2.34\u201327.14]; p &lt; 0.01; weight = 6.35%). Several genes were associated with an elevated risk of CAD: PCSK1 gene (OR = 2.12 [95% CI: 1.26\u20133.52]; p &lt; 0.05; weight = 8.77%), GLP1R gene (OR = 2.25 [95% CI: 1.27\u20133.97]; p &lt; 0.01; weight = 8.62%) and ADIPOQ gene (OR = 8.00 [95% CI: 2.34\u201327.14]; p &lt; 0.01; weight = 6.35%). Several genes were associated with possible protective effects: ACE gene (OR = 0.41 [95% CI: 0.23\u20130.73]; p &lt; 0.01; weight = 8.57%), Q192R gene (OR = 0.20 [95% CI: 0.08\u20130.52]; p &lt; 0.001; weight = 7.41%). Heterogeneity was substantial (\u03c42 = 0.78; I2 = 81.95%; Q (13) = 64.67, p &lt; 0.001). Conclusions: This first meta-analysis of genetic variants associated with CAD in Asian populations with T2DM identified specific locus-level associations implicating lipid metabolism, incretin signaling, and oxidative stress pathways. The lack of a significant pooled effect, alongside high heterogeneity, underscores the complexity and population-specific nature of this genetic architecture. These findings suggest that effective precision risk stratification may depend more on specific variants than on a broad polygenic signal, highlighting the need for further research in a larger, distinct sample size.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medsci14010052","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,21]],"date-time":"2026-01-21T13:59:54Z","timestamp":1769003994000},"page":"52","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Genetic Determinants of Coronary Artery Disease in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Among Asian Populations: A Meta-Analysis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9269-7890","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aida","family":"Kabibulatova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2146-3111","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamilla","family":"Mussina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5148-6889","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joseph","family":"Almazan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5734-7468","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Sarria-Santamera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4596-0887","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alessandro","family":"Salustri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7048-1511","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kuralay","family":"Atageldiyeva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Nazarbayev University School of Medicine, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Corporate Fund \u201cUniversity Medical Center\u201d, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"International Diabetes Federation (2025).
