Left eye retinal fundus image self-supervised embedding endophenotype 124

OCA2 · rs2703950

What the study found

Who was studied 65,087 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 7.1 higher (95% confidence interval 5.71-8.49); p = 2 × 10−23.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q13.1 — in an intron of OCA2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Left eye retinal fundus image self-supervised embedding endophenotype 124. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Left eye retinal fundus image self-supervised embedding endophenotype 124. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Left eye retinal fundus image self-supervised embedding endophenotype 124. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2703950

What is rs2703950?

rs2703950 is a single position in the genome, in or near the OCA2 gene. Published research associates it with left eye retinal fundus image self-supervised embedding endophenotype 124. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2703950 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 rs2703950 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS genetics 2024, PMID:38728357. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
