TNF alpha-308 genotype and renin-angiotensin system in hemodialysis patients: an effect on inflammatory cytokine levels?
ACE and TNF-alpha-308 G>A (1/2) gene polymorphisms may contribute to modulation of proinflammatory cytokine production and hence chronic inflammation in HD patients.
Visual outcome is better in patients with preoperative vision > 1 mfc and early post-operative vision significantly correlates with long term visual outcome.
