near PLXDC2 · rs12219125

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diabetic retinopathy — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Ophthalmology 2011, PMID:21310492)
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diabetic retinopathy. (GWAS Catalog, Ophthalmology 2011, PMID:21310492)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diabetic retinopathy compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Ophthalmology 2011, PMID:21310492)

Questions about rs12219125

What is rs12219125?

rs12219125 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near PLXDC2 gene. Published research associates it with diabetic retinopathy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12219125 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs12219125 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Ophthalmology 2011, PMID:21310492. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
