Table 2. Odds ratios by genotype

Table of odds ratios (crude, adjusted for age and sex) for normal (NTG) and high (HTG) tension glaucoma, for ε2 carriers and ε4 carriers relative to ε3/ε3 homozygotes. Grouped genotypes contain at least one of the ε2 or ε4 alleles, respectively (i.e., ε2/ε4 cases are included in both) with the ε3/ε3 group serving as a reference.
