• Association of Myopia and Intraocular Pressure With Retinal Detachment in European Descent Participants of the UK Biobank Cohort: A Mendelian Randomization Study. - JAMA ophthalmology (2021) · Han X, Ong JS, An J, Craig JE, Gharahkhani P, Hewitt AW, MacGregor S · PubMed 32352494

  Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a potentially sight-threatening condition. The role of myopia or intraocular pressure (IOP) in retinal detachment remains unclear. To determine if myopia or IOP is associated with retinal detachment risk using genetic data. Observational analyses and 2-sample mendelian randomization were used to evaluate the associations between myopia, IOP, and retinal detachment risk in European descent participants from the UK Biobank (UKBB) cohort (n = 405 692). For retinal detachment, a genome-wide association study on 4257 cases and 39 181 controls in the UKBB was conducted. Genetic variants associated with mean spherical equivalent (MSE) refractive error (n = 95 827) and IOP (n = 101 939) were derived using independent participants from the re

• Multitrait analysis of glaucoma identifies new risk loci and enables polygenic prediction of disease susceptibility and progression - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31959993

  ABSTRACT: Glaucoma, a disease characterized by progressive optic nerve degeneration, can be prevented through timely diagnosis and treatment. We characterized optic nerve photographs of 67,040 UK Biobank participants and used a multitrait genetic model to identify risk loci for glaucoma. A novel glaucoma polygenic risk score (PRS) enables effective risk stratification in unselected glaucoma cases, and modifies penetrance of MYOC p.Gln368Ter, the most common glaucoma-associated myocilin variant. In the unselected glaucoma population, individuals in the top PRS decile reach an absolute risk for glaucoma 10 years earlier than the bottom decile, and are at 15-fold increased risk of developing advanced glaucoma (top 10% vs. remaining 90% OR = 4.20). The PRS predicts glaucoma progression in pros
