We found that in Asian population, CETPrs3764261 (T allele; OR = 1.46; 95% CI: 1.28-1.665, <i>P</i> < 0.01), CETPrs2303790 (G allele; OR = 1.57; 95% CI: 1.258-1.96, <i>P</i> < 0.01), and ABCG1 rs57137919 (A allele; OR = 1.168; 95% CI: 1.016-1.343, <i>P</i> < 0.01) were significantly associated with PCV, and ABCG1 rs57137919 (A allele; OR = 1.208, 95% CI: 1.035-1.411, <i>P</i> < 0.01) has different effects in PCV and AMD.
The SNP rs3764261 in the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene was associated significantly with neovascular AMD (P = 1.82×10(-4); odds ratio [OR], 1.89) and PCV (P = 4.04×10(-4); OR, 1.80).
