Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND Increasing evidence shows that polymorphisms in a number of genes can influence age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk. This study aimed to investigate the association of CX3CR1 839C/T, CX3CR1 745G/A, PLEKHA1 958A/G, VEGFA +674C/T, and VEGFA +936C/T polymorphisms with AMD risk among Chinese.
