Notes

news rs2511989 not associated with AMD rs2511989(A;A) had a protective effect against age related macular degeneration. Comparison of the rs2511989(A;G) genotype and the wild type (G;G) genotype yielded an odds ratio of 0.63 (CI: 0.47 to 0.84) for age-related macular degeneration. Comparison of rs2511989(A;A) homozygotes with (G;G) homozygotes resulted in an odds ratio of 0.44 (CI: 0.31 to 0.64).
