Genetic Association of Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma and Disease Progression.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To investigate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reported in the largest up-to-date systematic review and meta-analysis on primary angle-closure disease (PACD), on their associations with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and disease progression.

Methods

This study involved a case-control design for PACG risk and a case-only design for PACG progression risk, including 628 PACG patients and 564 controls for disease association and 386 PACG patients with up to 10-year follow-up for PACG progression analysis. Associations of 17 SNPs in 15 genes with PACG were analysed using logistic regression. Sex-stratified association analysis was performed, followed by the Breslow-Day test. Genetic risk for PACG progression was evaluated using logistic regression. Bonfer
