What the study found

Who was studied 2,765 Qatari ancestry cases, 8,671 Qatari ancestry controls, 180,834 European ancestry cases, 1,159,055 European ancestry controls, 180,834 East Asian ancestry cases, 1,159,055 East Asian ancestry controls, 180,834 South Asian ancestry cases, 1,159,055 South Asian ancestry controls, 180,834 African ancestry cases, 1,159,055 African ancestry controls, 180,834 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 1,159,055 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0484 higher (95% confidence interval 0.034-0.063); p = 8 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q13.4 — in an intron of PDE2A.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Type 2 diabetes compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Type 2 diabetes.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Type 2 diabetes — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs11604837

What is rs11604837?

rs11604837 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PDE2A gene. Published research associates it with 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 rs11604837 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 rs11604837 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 rs11604837 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medical genomics 2024, PMID:38685053. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
