The Guangzhou Twin Eye Study: 2019 Update.

Twin research and human genetics : the official journal of the International Society for Twin Studies - 1 Dec 2019

Ding Xiaohu, Wang Wei, Scheetz Jane, He Mingguang

Abstract excerpt

The primary aim of the Guangzhou Twin Eye Study (GTES) is to explore the impact that genes and environmental inﬂuences have on common eye diseases. Since 2006, approximately 1300 pairs of twins, aged 7-15 years, were enrolled at baseline. Progressive phenotypes, such as cycloplegic refraction, axial length, height and weight, have been collected annually. Nonprogressive phenotypes such as parental refraction,...
