What the study found

Who was studied 218 European ancestry cases, 382 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 2.71 times the odds of Diabetic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes (95% confidence interval 2.02-3.64); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.21 — in the 3′ untranslated region of GUSBP5.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Diabetic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Diabetic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Diabetic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1132787

What is rs1132787?

rs1132787 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GYPA gene. Published research associates it with diabetic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1132787 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1132787 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 rs1132787 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medical genomics 2021, PMID:33430853. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
