Lnc2Catlas: an atlas of long noncoding RNAs associated with risk of cancers.

abstract：:Although the association between visual acuity (VA) and vision-related quality of life (VRQoL) has been well reported in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), little is known about how unilateral and bilateral VA affects daily performance in such patients. For this cross-sectional study, patients were recruit...
