Who was studied 60,552 European ancestry individuals, 8,429 African individuals, 9,959 Korean ancestry individuals, 11,775 Hispanic individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 20.9 ml lower (95% confidence interval 12.98-28.86); p = 2 × 10−7.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.21 — between genes, 16.9 kb from RPS23P4.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lung function (FEV1) compared to the general population.
A/CPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lung function (FEV1).
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lung function (FEV1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs111898810
What is rs111898810?
rs111898810 is a single position in the genome, in or near the OTUD4 gene. Published research associates it with lung function (fev1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs111898810 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Pulmonary Function (Lung Capacity). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs111898810 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 rs111898810 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2018, PMID:30061609. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
