View article: Genome wide association study and genomic risk prediction of age related macular degeneration in Israel
Genome wide association study and genomic risk prediction of age related macular degeneration in Israel Open
The risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is influenced by genetic background. In 2016, the International AMD Genomics Consortium (IAMDGC) identified 52 risk variants in 34 loci, and a polygenic risk score (PRS) from th…

Structural and Metabolic Imaging After Short-term Use of the Balance Goggles System in Glaucoma Patients: A Pilot Study Open
Précis: Short-term use of the Balance Goggles System (BGS) in glaucoma patients was not associated with the observable changes in conventional ocular coherence tomography (OCT) imaging, but metabolic imaging using peripapillary flavoprotei…

Analysis of the Aqueous Humor Proteome in Patients With Age-Related Macular Degeneration Open
AH proteomics in AMD patients identified several proteins and functional clusters with altered expression. Further research should confirm if these proteins may serve as biomarkers or therapeutic target for the disease.

Socioeconomic status and visual outcome in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration Open
Purpose Visual outcome in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration is variable. We aimed to evaluate for association between socioeconomic status visual acuity in neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Methods A re…

Association of a Variant in VWA3A with Response to Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Treatment in Neovascular AMD Open
An VWA3A gene variant was associated with worse response to anti-VEGF treatment in Israeli patients with nvAMD. The VWA3A protein is a precursor of the multimeric von Willebrand factor which is involved in blood coagulation, a system previ…
