What the study found

Who was studied 2,132 Indian ancestry individuals, 2,313 Malay ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,326 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.059 mm2 higher (95% confidence interval 0.039-0.079); p = 1 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 30% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q13.1 — between genes, 2.9 kb from CARD10.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Optic disc area. 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 Optic disc area. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Optic disc area. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6000762

What is rs6000762?

rs6000762 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CARD10 gene. Published research associates it with optic disc area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6000762 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 rs6000762 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 rs6000762 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2011, PMID:21307088. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
