The demographic features of the 62 Chinese pseudoexfoliation study subjects and 171 controls are shown. The age range and mean age with standard deviation (SD) are shown for each cohort. The difference in age between cases and controls was significant (p=5.853x10−10), but the gender frequencies were not (p=0.8824; Fisher’s exact test). Abbreviations: XFS=pseudoexfoliation syndrome; XFG=pseudoexfoliation glaucoma; n=number of subjects.
