Who was studied 4,086 European ancestry cases, 1,278,496 European ancestry controls, 1,055 East Asian ancestry cases, 177,671 East Asian ancestry controls, 2,696 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 136,842 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele carried 0.88 times the odds of Keloid (95% confidence interval 0.845830749-0.911590867); p = 1 × 10−11.
Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.5 — in an intron of LSP1.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Keloid. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Keloid. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Keloid. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs686722
What is rs686722?
rs686722 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LSP1 gene. Published research associates it with keloid. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs686722 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Keloid. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs686722 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 rs686722 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40835838. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
