Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Using a candidate-gene approach, a recent case-control study identified a previously unknown association between neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the coding Met72Thr variant in the pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) gene in a Taiwan Chinese population. However...
