Association of common variants in TCF4 and PTPRG with Fuchs' corneal dystrophy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
TOPIC: A meta-analysis of TCF4 and PTPRG gene variants in Fuchs' corneal dystrophy (FCD). CLINICAL RELEVANCE: To identify novel genetic markers in patients with FCD in different ethnic populations. METHODS: MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched for eligible genetic studies on TCF4 and PTPRG in FCD....
