Claim 1disease mechanismsupports2012Source 1DOI PubMed

Age-related macular degeneration is a complex disease resulting from interaction of genetic susceptibility with aging and environmental factors.

Quoted textsource-backed

It seems that AMD is a complex disease that results from the interaction of genetic susceptibility with aging and environmental factors.

Claim 2disease progressionsupports2012Source 1DOI PubMed

Age-related macular degeneration progression appears to be driven by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Quoted textsource-backed

Disease progression also seems to be driven by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Claim 3target identificationsupports2012Source 1DOI PubMed

Improved understanding of genetic susceptibility in age-related macular degeneration can identify targets to halt early disease and prevent progression and vision loss.

Quoted textsource-backed

With improved understanding of the underlying genetic susceptibility, we can identify targets to halt early disease and to prevent progression and vision loss.
