BACKGROUND To date, studies on the role played by cigarette smoking in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) remains controversial. The current study evaluated cigarette smoking as a risk factor of POAG and its relationships with vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR), central corneal thickness (CCT) and intraocular pressure (IOP) in a Chinese cohort. METHODS In a total of 248 unrelated individuals i...
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular risk factors are associated with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in the general population. However, long-term mortality and major kidney events in patients with new-onset POAG remain unclear. METHODS Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database between 1997 and 2011, 15 185 patients with a new diagnosis of POAG were enrolled and propensity score ma...
PURPOSE The neurotrophin-4 (NTF4) gene has been recently implicated in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). In this study, we investigated the implication of NTF4 in POAG among three Chinese cohorts. METHODS The coding regions and exon-intron boundaries of NTF4 was sequenced in 950 unrelated Chinese subjects, including a Hong Kong cohort of 390 patients and 230 controls, a Shantou cohort of 13...
Multiple loci have been associated with either primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or heritable ocular quantitative traits associated with this condition. This study examined the association of these loci with POAG, with central corneal thickness (CCT), vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR) and with diabetes mellitus in a group of black South Africans (215 POAG cases and 214 controls). The populatio...
PURPOSE We aim to assess the longitudinal association between baseline estimated cerebrospinal fluid pressure (CSFP) and 5-year incident primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in a population-based sample of Bai Chinese living in rural China. METHODS Among the 2133 Bai Chinese aged 50 years or older who had participated in the baseline examination of the Yunnan Minority Eye Study, 1520 (71.3%) at...
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the major type of glaucoma. To discover genetic markers associated with POAG, we examined a total of 1,575 Japanese subjects in a genome-wide association study (stage 1) and a subsequent study (stage 2). Both studies were carried out at a single institution. In the stage 1 association study, we compared SNPs between 418 POAG patients and 300 control subject...
The purpose of this paper was to estimate arteriovenous passage (AVP) times, taking into account the non-uniform distribution of arrival times over the vessel diameter, and assessment of respective differences between 15 normal controls (N), 30 primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and 30 normal-pressure glaucoma (NPG) patients. Arrival times in retinal vessels were assessed from digitized scannin...
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate differences in iris gene expression profiles between primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and their interaction with biometric characteristics. DESIGN Prospective study. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-five subjects with PACG and thirty-three subjects with POAG who required trabeculectomy were enrolled at the Singapore Nati...
PURPOSE To evaluate the possible correlation between the visual field defects in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and the expression and enzymatic activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) isoenzymes and nitrotyrosine in trabecular meshwork (TM) samples. METHODS TM specimens were collected from 146 patients with POAG by using standard filtration surgery. Visual field defects wer...
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are leading causes of irreversible blindness. Several loci have been mapped using genome-wide association studies. Until very recently, there was no recognized overlap in the genetic contribution to AMD and POAG. At genome-wide significance level, only ABCA1 harbors associations to both diseases. Here, we investigated...
