Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To assess the association between the NOS3 4b/a, T-786C and G894T polymorphisms and diabetic retinopathy (DR) susceptibility. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-one studies covering 8,111 subjects were included. The fixed or random effect model used was based on heterogeneity. RESULTS: A significant association of the intron 4a allele in the NOS3 4b/a polymorphism with reduced risk of DR was found in dominant...
