Table 5. Glutathione S-transferase genotypes and the risk of developing primary angle-closure.

GST genotypes Controls (n=120) PACG patients (n=29) Odds ratio 95% Confidence interval p-Value
T1M1 102 (85%) 14 (48.3%) Reference - -
T0M0 3 (2.5%) 3 (10.3%) 7.29 1.04 – 51.9 0.034
T1M0 10 (8.3%) 10 (34.5%) 7.29 2.30 – 23.5 0.0002
T0M1 5 (4.2%) 2 (6.9%) 2.91 0.35 – 19.7 0.225

The frequency of the T1M0 genotype was significantly greater in PACG patients than in controls (p=0.0002), whereas the prevalence of T0M0 and T0M1 genotypes were not statistically different from controls. After Bonferroni correction, p-value < 0.0167 was considered statistically significant.
