Association analysis of genetic and environmental risk factors in the cuticular drusen subtype of age-related macular degeneration. [PDF]
PURPOSE: To assess the association of gender, cigarette smoking, body-mass index, and nine genetic risk variants with cuticular drusen (CD), a well recognized subtype of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS: A total of 757 patients with AMD, including 217 patients with CD, and 553 control individuals were interviewed with a questionnaire and

Morphological Changes in the Saw-Tooth Pattern of Cuticular Drusen Associated with Immune Complex-Mediated Membranous Proliferative Glomerulonephritis Type III: A Case Report. [PDF]
Introduction: Patients with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) type III may exhibit the saw-tooth pattern of cuticular drusen. This study reports a four-and-a-half-year retrospective time-dependent observation of cuticular drusen associated with immune complex-mediated MPGN type III patients.

Drusen characteristics of type 2 macular neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration
Background Type 2 macular neovascularization (MNV) is supposed to be a rare condition in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The main purpose of this study was to assess accompanying factors of type 2 MNV in AMD.
