Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Necrosis tumor factor (TNF) is known to be associated with diabetic retinopathy (DR). The objective of this study was to examine the genetic variations of TNF-alpha and assess their possible relationship to DR in type 2 diabetic patients in the Chinese population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a case-control association study between the promoter variants of TNF-alpha and diabetic retinopathy in...
