Chronic central serous retinopathy

SLC7A5 · rs11865049

What the study found

Who was studied 137 Japanese ancestry cases, 1,174 Japanese ancestry controls; replicated in 183 Japanese ancestry cases, 2,071 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 2.10 times the odds of Chronic central serous retinopathy (95% confidence interval 1.62-2.67); p = 1 × 10−8.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.2 — in an intron of SLC7A5.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Chronic central serous retinopathy. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Chronic central serous retinopathy. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Chronic central serous retinopathy. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11865049

What is rs11865049?

rs11865049 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC7A5 gene. Published research associates it with chronic central serous retinopathy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11865049 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 rs11865049 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 2018, PMID:30480742. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
