Identification of Markers Predicting Clinical Course in Patients with IgG4-Related Ophthalmic Disease by Unbiased Clustering Analysis

Purpose: To describe the clinical features of patients with immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD) grouped by unbiased cluster analysis using peripheral blood test data and to find novel biomarkers for predicting clinical features. Methods: One hundred and seven patients diagnosed with IgG4-ROD were divided into four groups by unsupervised hierarchical cluster analysis using peripheral blood test data. The clinical...
