Association of Genetic Variants With Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Among Individuals With African Ancestry
Association of Genetic Variants With Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Among Individuals With African Ancestry is a scholarly work by Susan Eileen Isabella Williams, Jerome I Rotter, Kent D Taylor, Donald W Bowden, Cornelia M. van Duijn, Yen-Chu Chen, Jessica N Cooke Bailey, Girish N. Nadkarni, Donald L Budenz, Rachel Kuchtey, Margaret A. Pericak-Vance, Michael A. Hauser, R Rand Allingham, Khaled K Abu-Amero, Jonathan L Haines, Christopher J. Hammond, Christine M Hulette, Robert P Igo, Julia E Richards, Janey L Wiggs, Linda M Zangwill, Caroline C Klaver, Robert N Weinreb, Allison Ashley-Koch, and John H. Fingert, published in 2019 in ''The Journal of the American Medical Association''. The main subjects of the publication include open-angle glaucoma, ophthalmology, population, intraocular pressure, medicine, macular degeneration, genome-wide association study, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, optometry, and interquartile range. In this genome-wide association study, variants at the APBB2 locus demonstrated differential association with primary open-angle glaucoma by ancestry.
