Higher levels of TNF-alpha at 2 weeks were associated with an increased risk of ROP (Beta = −0.45, p = 0.0014), whereas higher IGF1 levels offered protective effects against ROP, with Beta coefficients of 0.37 (p = 0.0032) for the first collection and 0.32 (p = 0.0028) for the second. This evidence concerns the gene IGF1 and retinopathy of prematurity.
