Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Keratoconus normally presents as a sporadic disease. Although different studies have found sequence variants of the visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) gene associated with keratoconus in humans, no research has detected such variants in sporadic keratoconus patients from China. To investigate the possibility of VSX1 being a candidate susceptibility gene for Chinese patients with sporadic keratoconus, we...
