Spherical equivalent

near MFRP · rs45509899

What the study found

Who was studied 95,827 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.14 higher (95% confidence interval 0.1-0.18); p = 4 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — between genes, 0.2 kb from MFRP.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Spherical equivalent. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Spherical equivalent. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Spherical equivalent. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs45509899

What is rs45509899?

rs45509899 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MFRP gene. Published research associates it with spherical equivalent. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs45509899 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 rs45509899 come from?

GWAS Catalog, JAMA ophthalmology 2020, PMID:32352494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
