Multiple studies have assessed the contribution of rs10490924 on chromosome 10q26 surrounding gene to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk. However, the causal allele at this locus is still inconclusive. In this meta-analysis, we systematically characterized the potential association between rs10490924 polymorphism and AMD risk. Data available from 12 case-control studies, including a total of 5244 cases and 2755 controls in three different ethnic populations, were used to evaluate the correlation between rs10490924 G/T polymorphism (Ala69Ser) and AMD risk. In overall populations, the results indicated the Ala69Ser polymorphism was significantly associated with AMD under allelic (OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.30-0.40), homozygous (OR = 0.12, 95%CI = 0.09-0.17), dominant (OR = 0.18, 95%CI = 0.14-0.24), recessive (OR = 0.33, 95%CI = 0.28-0.39), and heterozygous genetic models (OR = 0.26, 95% CI = 0.21-0.33). Similar results were observed in subgroup analysis. This meta-analysis suggests that rs10490924 (Ala69Ser) polymorphism was significantly associated with the susceptibility of AMD in all ethnicities, Ala69 carriers are resistant to AMD risk.

The aim of dynamic prediction is to provide individualized risk predictions over time, which are updated as new data become available. In pursuit of constructing a dynamic prediction model for a progressive eye disorder, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), we propose a time-dependent Cox survival neural network (tdCoxSNN) to predict its progression using longitudinal fundus images. tdCoxSNN builds upon the time-dependent Cox model by utilizing a neural network to capture the nonlinear effect of time-dependent covariates on the survival outcome.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of severe irreversible blindness worldwide in the elderly population. AMD is a multifactorial disease mainly caused by advanced age, environmental factors, and genetic variations. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have strongly supported the link between locus on chromosome 10q26 and AMD development, encompassing multiple variants, rs10490924 (c.

Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) decrease vision and presents considerable challenges for both public health and clinical management strategies. Obesity is usually implicated with increased AMD, and body mass index (BMI) does not reflect body fat distribution. An array of studies has indicated a robust relationship between body fat distribution and obesity.

Study Objective: Despite falling teen birth rates in the United States, there is a disproportionate burden of teen births in rural regions. The study aims to investigate the characteristics of teenage mothers and examine the relationships between teen birth and adverse birth outcomes in the rural Appalachian state of West Virginia (WV).

Methods: Data was obtained from a population-based cohort (Project WATCH) of all singleton live births in WV between May 2018 and April 2023.

Purpose: We assessed the associations of macular layer thicknesses, measured using spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT), with incident age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and AMD polygenic risk scores (PRS).

Design: Population-based cohort study PARTICIPANTS: 653 participants of the Alienor study, with biennial eye imaging from 2009 to 2024.

Methods: Macular layer thicknesses of eight distinct layers and three compound layers were automatically segmented based on SD-OCT imaging of the macula.
