Table 2.

Logistic regression model analysis of the association between PXF with cataract, glaucoma and hearing loss while adjusting for gender and age.*

PXF, n (%) Non-PXF, n (%) PXF:Non-PXF Odds ratio p-value
Cataract 1 : 15.1

Present 208 (65) 3149 (42.5)

Absent 112 (35) 4269 (57.5)

Total 320 (100) 7418 (100) < 0.001

Glaucoma 1 : 2.52

Present 97 (30.31) 244 (3.3)

Absent 223 (79.7) 7174 (96.7)

Total 320 (100) 7418 (100) < 0.001

Hearing loss 1 : 6.6

Present 26 (8.1) 171 (2.3)

Absent 294 (91.9) 7247 (97.7)

Total 320 (100) 7418 (100) < 0.001

PXF = pseudoexfoliation.

*Age adjustment was performed using the population estimates for the U.S. for the year 2000 as the standard.
