Table 2. Distribution of IL10 -592C>A genotypes in retinal artery occlusion patients and controls.

	Patients with RAO (n=194)	Controls (n=257)	p
CC	124 (63.9)	132 (51.4)
CA	63 (32.5)	107 (41.6)
AA	7 (3.6)	18 (7.0)	0.008 *

Distribution of IL10 -592C>A genotypes in retinal artery (RAO) patients and controls. Carriers of the IL10 -592A-allele (AA+CA genotypes) were found significantly more often in the control group than among patients with retinal artery occlusion. Numbers for genotypes are given as n (%). Data were compared by chi square test asterisk (*; AA+CA) versus CC.
