Who was studied 10,792 European ancestry male cases, 190,694 European ancestry male controls.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−36.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.33 — inside KLK2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Prostate cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Prostate cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
