What the study found

Who was studied 24,509 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.023 mm2 lower (95% confidence interval 0.015-0.031); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 38% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — in the 5′ untranslated region of RBP4.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2021-05-14. ClinVar record 1260386 NM_006744.4(RBP4):c.-55T>G

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Optic disc area. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Optic disc area. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Optic disc area. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10882283

What is rs10882283?

rs10882283 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RBP4 gene. Published research associates it with optic disc area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10882283 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 rs10882283 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2019, PMID:31798171. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
