Twin study of age-related macular degeneration

1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To evaluate the genetic contribution in age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) by a disease-ascertained twin study. METHODS: Concordance rates for ARMD in 25 twins were obtained by using four masked graders to confirm the diagnosis of ARMD and place subjects in one of three categories; concordant, intermediate, or discordant. Demographic features and known risk factors for ARMD were compared between...
