What the study found

Who was studied 11,024 European ancestry psoriasis cases, 74,124 European ancestry diabetes cases, 840,342 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.06 times the odds of Psoriasis or type 2 diabetes (trans-disease meta-analysis)(opposite effect) (95% confidence interval -); p = 3 × 10−8.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.3 — in a non-coding transcript of PROX1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Psoriasis or type 2 diabetes (trans-disease meta-analysis)(opposite effect). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Psoriasis or type 2 diabetes (trans-disease meta-analysis)(opposite effect). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Psoriasis or type 2 diabetes (trans-disease meta-analysis)(opposite effect). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
