Rare and Common Genetic Variants, Smoking and Higher Body Mass Index Are Associated with Earlier Age of Progression to Geographic Atrophy and Neovascular Advanced Stages of Macular Degeneration in a Prospective Analysis

2020-08-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>IMPORTANCE</h4> Genes and lifestyle factors influence progression to advanced age-related macular degeneration (AAMD). However, the impact of genetic and behavioral factors on age when this transition occurs has not been evaluated prospectively. <h4>OBJECTIVE</h4> To determine whether genetic and environmental factors are associated with age of progression to AAMD and to quantify the effect o...
