What the study found

Who was studied 365,954 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.032 lower (95% confidence interval 0.024-0.04); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 28% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p22.1 — in the 5′ untranslated region of CCDC18-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Eosinophil count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10782959

What is rs10782959?

rs10782959 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCDC18-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10782959 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10782959 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 rs10782959 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Frontiers in immunology 2022, PMID:35935937. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
