Table 5. Frequency of M98K in four populations within our cohort

The total enumeration of both cases and controls is listed in the whole population column. Cases are subdivided according to OAG type, either JOAG, POAG, or NTG. A two-sided Fisher's exact test p value indicated no statistical significance for association between cases and controls in each ancestry category. Woolf's test for homogeneity among the ancestry frequencies yielded a p value of 0.312, indicating that the ancestral subdivisions are statistically similar.
