The Relationship Between Hepatic Lipase Gene Variant and Advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration
AssociationN=472Li-Xia Lou et al.(2014)· JAMA Ophthalmology

Prospective cohort study of 472 elderly French participants (mean age 81.9 years) from the ALIENOR study examining incident reticular pseudodrusen (RPD). Annual incidence was 2.047% with estimated 5-year cumulative incidence of 9.73%. Risk factors identified in multivariate analysis included ARMS2 rs10490924 (HR 3.36, p=0.0009), LIPC rs10468017 (HR 2.65, p=0.0029), and thinner choroidal thickness (HR 1.06, p=0.0085). Liposoluble statin medication was protective (HR 0.18, p=0.0448).
