Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome

Assembled from catalogue records October 20, 2026

Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 5 positions from 1 study, the largest recording 3,122 cases and 625,178 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American ancestry). Built from the GWAS Catalog's records and rebuilt when a new position is reported; the figures are the studies'.

Prevalence
No prevalence figure appears here: a study's sample size is not a measure of how common a condition is. The largest sample behind this page was 3,122 cases and 625,178 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American ancestry) (Verma A et al. 2024, PMID:39024449).
Inheritance
Many positions, each with a small effect: 5 positions across 1 study, the pattern of a polygenic condition. The records do not give a heritability, and this page does not supply one.

Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome — filed in the GWAS Catalog as "Complex regional/central pain syndrome (PheCode 355)" — is a condition this catalogue follows as its positions arrive. This page is assembled by MyGeneLog's own code from the catalogue's records and the studies' own listings: 5 positions from 1 study, and no sentence written by hand. It is rebuilt as new positions are reported, so what it says is what the records say today.

The studies behind the positions

Verma A et al. 2024, in Science — Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program. The catalogue records its sample as 3,122 cases and 625,178 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American ancestry). From it, 5 positions on this page: rs116935049 (near KIF2B), rs142714744 (near AEN), rs575463074 (near XXYLT1), rs186711928 (near TUBBP9), rs535285063 (near RN7SL679P). PMID:39024449.

The positions

The catalogue maps the 5 positions to 5 genes: KIF2B, AEN, XXYLT1, TUBBP9, RN7SL679P. That mapping says where a position sits, in a gene or beside one — not what it does. For what each study measured, follow its citation above.

Verma A et al. 2024 reported the smallest P value on this page — P = 4 × 10-13 — at rs116935049 near KIF2B.

What this page is, and is not

It is a record of what genome-wide studies have reported about Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome, kept current by code. It is not a description of the condition, an estimate of how common it is, or guidance of any kind — a page that took those from association records would be inventing them. Each variant page linked here carries that study's own record for the position in fixed sentences, and ClinVar's record where one exists.

Clinical detail

Genotype and diagnosis

Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome is diagnosed by a clinician — not from a genotype. None of the 5 variants on this page is used by any guideline to predict, screen for or diagnose it.

Its sources are association records, and association records carry no clinical guidance, so neither does this page. What a genome-wide study reports is a difference between groups of people, not a finding about any one person. Symptoms, tests and treatment are questions for a clinician.

What a 23andMe/AncestryDNA export or raw VCF can and can't tell you about Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome comes down to these specific, well-studied positions — not a diagnosis.

Questions about Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome

What is Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome?

In the GWAS Catalog, Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome is filed as "Complex regional/central pain syndrome (PheCode 355)". Rather than define it, this page lists the genome-wide findings: 5 positions from 1 study, each with its study's sample and citation.

Is Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome genetic?

Genome-wide studies have reported 5 associated positions; the largest study behind this page recorded 3,122 cases and 625,178 controls (African American or Afro-Caribbean ancestry, European ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American ancestry). Each common variant has a small effect, and an association in a population is not a cause in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome on this page?

The positions lie in or near 5 genes: KIF2B, AEN, XXYLT1, TUBBP9, RN7SL679P. A mapped gene is the catalogue's location for a position, not a mechanism.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome?

No. Each variant shifts the odds only slightly, and only on average across many people. No guideline predicts Complex Regional/central Pain Syndrome from a genotype; a clinician diagnoses it.
