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 T allele shifted the measure 0.0424 higher (95% confidence interval 0.03-0.055); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 50% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p24.3 — between genes, 4.8 kb from TRIB2.

What each result means

C/C 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.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Open-angle glaucoma (PheCode 365.1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T 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.

Questions about rs1974923

What is rs1974923?

rs1974923 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TRIB2 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 rs1974923 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 rs1974923 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 rs1974923 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.
