What the study found

Who was studied 30,309 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 84,722 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 8,523 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 48,779 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 1,127 East Asian ancestry cases, 5,402 East Asian ancestry controls, 56,207 European ancestry cases, 377,826 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.045 lower (95% confidence interval 0.033-0.057); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 66% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q25.3 — in an intron of HSPA12A.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Open-angle glaucoma (PheCode 365.1). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Open-angle glaucoma (PheCode 365.1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Open-angle glaucoma (PheCode 365.1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1681734

What is rs1681734?

rs1681734 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HSPA12A gene. Published research associates it with open-angle glaucoma (phecode 365.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1681734 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 rs1681734 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 rs1681734 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
