End-stage renal disease in Type 1 diabetics

LINC01266 · rs115061173

What the study found

Who was studied 2,187 European ancestry cases, 12,101 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 9.40 times the odds of End-stage renal disease in Type 1 diabetics; p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p26.3 — between genes, 14.6 kb from LINC01266.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to End-stage renal disease in Type 1 diabetics. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to End-stage renal disease in Type 1 diabetics. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to End-stage renal disease in Type 1 diabetics. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs115061173

What is rs115061173?

rs115061173 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01266 gene. Published research associates it with end-stage renal disease in type 1 diabetics. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs115061173 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 rs115061173 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN 2019, PMID:31537649. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
