Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: This study sought to analyze the effect of allele mutations and gene functions specific to glaucoma susceptibility among Africans. METHODS: Potentially relevant studies were retrieved from major bibliographic databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science). Data were extracted and study-specific estimates were meta-analyzed using various models to obtain pooled results. RESULTS: A total of 11 studies were...
