What the study found

Who was studied at least 29,241 European ancestry cases, at least 350,181 European ancestry controls (MTAG boosted by vertical cup-to-disc ratio and intraocular pressure samples).

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0634 higher (95% confidence interval 0.046-0.08); p = 3 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — between genes, 21.8 kb from XRCC6P1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Primary open angle glaucoma (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Primary open angle glaucoma (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Primary open angle glaucoma (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11187315

What is rs11187315?

rs11187315 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near XRCC6P1 gene. Published research associates it with primary open angle glaucoma (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11187315 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Glaucoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs11187315 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 rs11187315 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:37386247. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
