ASSOCIATION STUDY BETWEEN POLYMORPHISMS OF THE p53 AND LYMPHOTOXIN ALPHA (LTA) GENES AND THE RISK OF PROLIFERATIVE VITREORETINOPATHY/RETINAL DETACHMENT IN A MEXICAN POPULATION

Conclusion: The C allele for rs1042522 in p53 was genetically associated with a higher risk for RD but not for PVR in this cohort. This is the first association study attempting replication of PVR-associated risk alleles in a nonwhite population.
