Solid lines are connections this site curates. Dashed lines mean the two ends share a research paper — worth knowing, and not a claim that one explains the other.
What the study found
Who was studied 1,839 Han Chinese ancestry cases, 1,873 Han Chinese ancestry controls; replicated in 15,979 East Asian ancestry cases, 19,360 East Asian ancestry controls, 794 Malay ancestry cases, 1,240 Malay ancestry controls, 159 Filipino ancestry cases, 1,624 Filipino ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.12 times the odds of Type 2 diabetes (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.16); p = 7 × 10−9.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 78% in the people studied.

Papers in Europe PMC whose title or abstract names both this rsID and that subject. A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together — it is not a claim that this position explains the subject.
rs10886471 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GRK5 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (8 papers), cholesterol and blood fats (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.
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.
