Blood groups as genetic markers in glaucoma.
A series of 474 mixed cases of glaucoma was assessed to determine whether there were any genetic differences between different types of glaucoma. A careful distinction was made between chronic open angle glaucoma (COAG), acute and chronic angle closure glaucoma, ocular hypertension, low tension glaucoma, patients with large cup disc ratios, and various types of secondary glaucoma including pseu...
متن کاملGenetic markers in glaucoma.
A number of genetic polymorphisms have been investigated in Negro and Caucasoid patients with glaucoma and the results compared with data obtained on healthy controls. A sample of 61 Negro patients was not significantly different from a sample of 238 controls with respect to 18 red cell and serum protein systems; no association between glaucoma and any of these systems could be demonstrated. Th...
متن کاملGenetic Kinship Investigation from Blood Groups to DNA Markers.
The forensic application of hereditary characteristics became possible after the discovery of human blood groups by Karl Landsteiner in 1901. The foundation for their use in kinship investigation was laid by Emil von Dungern and Ludwig Hirschfeld in 1910 by clarification of the inheritance of the ABO groups. Up to the middle of the 20th century further red cell membrane systems were discovered....
متن کاملassociation between glaucoma and blood groups
there are reports from different countries that some types of glaucoma are associated with blood groups. this cross-sectional study was performed on 400 glaucomatous patients [100 patients in each group of primary open angle glaucoma (poag), chronic angle closure glaucoma (cacg), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (pexg) and primary congenital glaucoma (pcg)] and 400 blood donors as control group to as...
متن کاملGenetic Markers in Human Blood
The human population genetics incorporates study of biology and environmental factors, as well as the forces of micro-evolution leading to macro-evolution, which ultimately influences the structure of humanpopulations. In the present paper and attempt has been made to a give a brief review of the genetics and distribution of some of the polymorphic traits blood groups, human leucocyte antig...
