nearly significantp = 1.02 × 10 −7
For AMD, we identified one genome-wide significant locus in 18q22.2, rs12956753 (OR = 1.71, p = 3.76 × 10 −8 ), and another nearly significant locus in 15q14, rs138597498 (OR = 1.75, p = 1.02 × 10 −7 ), located near the genes DOK6 and DPH6 , respectively ( Figure 1 B).
