What the study found

Who was studied 81,303 European ancestry cases, 349,418 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0456 lower (95% confidence interval 0.032-0.059); p = 2 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 25% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p14.3 — in an intron of ARHGEF3.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9311623

What is rs9311623?

rs9311623 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARHGEF3 gene. Published research associates it with glaucoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9311623 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 rs9311623 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 rs9311623 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
