Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To develop a genotype assay to assess associations with common and rare age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk variants, to calculate an overall genetic risk score (GRS), and to identify potential misdiagnoses with inherited macular dystrophies that mimic AMD. DESIGN: Case-control study. PARTICIPANTS: Individuals (n = 4740) from 5 European cohorts. METHODS: We designed single-molecule molecular...
