Hearing impairment and health-related quality of life: the Blue Mountains Hearing Study.

Ee Munn Chia, +5 more
- 01 Apr 2007 - 
TL;DR: People with self-reported hearing loss had significantly poorer HRQOL than corresponding persons without, but persons with unilateral or high-frequency hearing loss did not have significantly differentHRQOL scores than their corresponding counterparts.

Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function

Cristian Pattaro, +735 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular filtration rate suggests that genetic determinants of eGFR are mediated largely through direct effects within the kidney and highlight important cell types and biological pathways.

Ee-Munn Chia, +5 more
- 01 Jun 2003 -

Jennifer S. L. Tan, +5 more
- 01 Feb 2008 - 
TL;DR: Higher dietary lutein and zeaxanthin intake reduced the risk of long-term incident AMD and confirmed the Age-Related Eye Disease Study finding of protective influences from zinc against AMD.

Kathryn P. Burdon, +28 more
- 01 Jun 2011 - 
TL;DR: The genome-wide association study for open-angle glaucoma (OAG) blindness using a discovery cohort of 590 individuals with severe visual field loss and 3,956 controls shows retinal expression of genes at both loci at TMCO1 and CDKN2B-AS1 in human ocular tissues.
