Genome-wide meta-analyses of multiancestry cohorts identify multiple new susceptibility loci for refractive error and myopia

Virginie J. M. Verhoeven, +128 more
- 01 Mar 2013 - 
TL;DR: The CREAM consortium conducted genome-wide meta-analyses, which identified 16 new loci for refractive error in individuals of European ancestry and 8 were shared with Asians, and identified 8 additional associated loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide analysis of multi-ancestry cohorts identifies new loci influencing intraocular pressure and susceptibility to glaucoma

Pirro G. Hysi, +100 more
- 01 Oct 2014 - 
TL;DR: The results of a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of 18 population cohorts from the International Glaucoma Genetics Consortium (IGGC), comprising 35,296 multi-ancestry participants for IOP were reported in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nine loci for ocular axial length identified through genome-wide association studies, including shared loci with refractive error

Ching-Yu Cheng, +123 more
TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for ocular axial length (AL) and confirmed one previously reported AL locus (ZC3H11B).
Journal ArticleDOI

New insights into the genetics of primary open-angle glaucoma based on meta-analyses of intraocular pressure and optic disc characteristics

Henriët Springelkamp, +87 more
TL;DR: Several novel genes influencing the major clinical risk predictors of POAG are identified and it is shown that genetic variation in CDKN1A is important in POAG risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies Identifies Novel Loci Associated With Optic Disc Morphology

Henriët Springelkamp, +63 more
- 01 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: These specific measurements describe optic nerve morphology in another way than the vertical cup‐disc ratio, which is a clinically used measurement, and may shed light on new glaucoma mechanisms.
