What the study found

Who was studied 17,008 European ancestry cases, 37,154 European ancestry controls; replicated in 8,572 European ancestry cases, 11,312 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.10 times the odds of Alzheimer's disease (late onset) (95% confidence interval 1.06-1.14); p = 6 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 78% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.12 — in an intron of SLC24A4.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease (late onset). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease (late onset). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease (late onset). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10498633

What is rs10498633?

rs10498633 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC24A4 gene. Published research associates it with alzheimer's disease (late onset). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10498633 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Alzheimer's Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10498633 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 rs10498633 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:24162737. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
