What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Myositis — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Genes Immun 2015, PMID:26291516)
A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Myositis. (GWAS Catalog, Genes Immun 2015, PMID:26291516)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Myositis compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Genes Immun 2015, PMID:26291516)

Questions about rs115146037

What is rs115146037?

rs115146037 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PMSP gene. Published research associates it with myositis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs115146037 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 rs115146037 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genes Immun 2015, PMID:26291516. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
