The allele frequencies were presented as allele count (%). value was calculated using Chi-squared test or Fisher’s exact test and corrected for multiple testing using the FDR method. : number of subjects; PSS: Posner-Schlossman syndrome; : value; Pc: corrected value; CI: confidence interval; OR: odds ratio; TFBS: transcription factor binding sites; ESE: exon splicing enhancer; ESS: exon splicing silencer; nsSNP: nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism. values less than 0.05 are bolded.
