Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 12,448 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.031 higher (95% confidence interval 0.021-0.041); p = 5 × 10⁻⁹.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 33% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.2 — inside CALCB.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Procalcitonin levels (adjusted for BMI) compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Procalcitonin levels (adjusted for BMI).

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Procalcitonin levels (adjusted for BMI) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs10832337

What is rs10832337?

rs10832337 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CALCB gene. Published research associates it with procalcitonin levels (adjusted for bmi). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10832337 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 rs10832337 come from?

GWAS Catalog, EBioMedicine 2026, PMID:41406505. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
