No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the potential association between MMP-2 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to cataract development in Egyptian patients. Furthermore, this study aims to compare between cataract patients and healthy controls by measuring the serum IL-6 concentration to evaluate its relationship with disease.
