Abstract

Pharmacogenetics seeks to explain interpatient variability in response to medications by investigating genotype-phenotype correlations. There is a small but growing body of data regarding the pharmacogenetics of both nonexudative and exudative age-related macular degeneration. Most reported data concern polymorphisms in the complement factor H and age-related maculopathy susceptibility 2 genes. At this time, the data are not consistent and no definite conclusions may be drawn. As clinical trials data continue to accumulate, these relationships may become more apparent.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The four SNPs studied have consistently shown the strongest associations with AMD development and progression and have been postulated to influence treatment response.

    “Although other susceptibility genes have been reported, these four SNPs have consistently been shown to have the strongest associations with the development and progression of AMD and have been postulated to influence response to therapy.2,3,12”

    From Pharmacogenetics for Genes Associated with Age-related Macular Degeneration in the Comparison of AMD Treatments Trials (CATT) (2013) · cites this paper as [12]

    In §2 (Studied Genotypes; page unavailable), the paper describes CFH as strongly linked to AMD and the ARMS2/HTRA1 locus as consistently associated with it. Sections 3–5 examine whether genetic variants influence treatment response. The paper does not identify four SNPs as consistently having the strongest associations with both AMD development and progression; §3 reports no significant association with progression for ARMS2 A69S in the AREDS analysis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
