Associations of Vitamin D Receptor ApaI and Tru9I Polymorphisms With the Risk of Primary Open-angle Glaucoma

Completed
Conditions
Primary Open- Angle Glaucoma
Interventions
Other: Vitamin D receptor polymorphic analysis
Registration Number
NCT02805231
Lead Sponsor
Lv Yingjuan
Brief Summary

This study investigated whether vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism is altered in primary open-angle glaucoma subjects carrying the risk allele.Primary open-angle glaucoma patients and age-matched people in the Han population were enrolled. Vitamin D receptor polymorphic analysis was studied by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique.
