Table 5.

Clinical characteristics of glaucoma patients according to genotype for Gln27Glu in the ADRB2 gene. Differences in the dominant model of polymorphisms of ADRB2/Gln27Glu in association with three clinical characteristics are shown. Associations between clinical characteristics and genotypes were assessed by multivariate analyses carried out with a logistic regression model. For the Gln27Glu polymorphism in the ADRB2 gene, IOPs at diagnosis were significantly higher in OAG patients with Gln/Glu+Glu/Glu (24.2±9.2 mmHg) than in those with Gln/Gln (20.2±5.9 mmHg, p<0.001). P values were calculated with logistic regression analysis. The asterisk indicates a p<0.05.
