Decreased glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity and risk of senile cataract in Taiwan.

Ophthalmic epidemiology - 1 Apr 2006

Wan Gwo-Hwa, Lin Ken-Kuo, Tsai Shu-Chen, Chiu Daniel Tsun-Yee

Abstract excerpt

G6PD deficiency may render afflicted individuals more susceptible to certain degenerative diseases. To clarify the relationship between G6PD deficiency and cataract, blood G6PD activity was determined in patients with cataract in Taiwan. The cases and hospital-based controls were recruited from the medical outpatient department and from the physical checkup department at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital,...
