Table 3. Genotype distribution of eNOS 27-bp repeat and eNOS T-786C polymorphisms two groups of infants with retinopathy of prematurity

The chi2 test was used to compare genotype distribution of the different polymorphisms between infants with stage 1 or 2 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) that was not severe enough to be treated and infants whose severe ROP required treatment. Data are given as the number of patients.
