Abstract excerpt
IMPORTANCE: A framework for understanding the phenotypic features of CRX retinopathy was established. BACKGROUND: To perform a phenotype-genotype correlation analysis in two groups of patients with heterozygous mutations in distinct locations of the CRX gene, encoding the cone-rod homeobox. DESIGN: Multicentre retrospective study. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-one Japanese patients from 14 families with a heterozygous CRX...
