Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Despite adequate glycemic control, a proportion of patients develop diabetic retinopathy (DR), suggesting the contribution of other mechanisms. To explore genetic associations with DR, we conducted a whole-exome sequencing (WES) study of DR using a dual-control design in individuals of European ancestry. Methods: Leveraging UK Biobank WES data, we implemented a dual-control design to identify candidate...
