Gender-specific association of early age-related macular degeneration with systemic and genetic factors in a Japanese population

Abstract The Tsuruoka Metabolomics Cohort Study included subjects aged 35–74 years from participants in annual health check-up programs in Tsuruoka, Japan. The gender-specific associations of early age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with systemic and genetic factors was assessed cross-sectionall...
