What the study found

Who was studied 49,733 European ancestry cases, 963,748 European ancestry controls, 19 East Asian ancestry cases, 2,184 East Asian ancestry controls, 74 African or African American cases, 7,319 African or African American controls, 48 South Asian ancestry cases, 7,921 South Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 0.95 times the odds of Osteoarthritis (with total hip replacement) (95% confidence interval 0.937176436040929-0.966652425138067); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 73% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p13.1 — in an intron of TNFSF12.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs116600817

What is rs116600817?

rs116600817 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TNFSF12 gene. Published research associates it with osteoarthritis (with total hip replacement). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs116600817 linked to?

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

Does having rs116600817 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 rs116600817 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2025, PMID:40205036. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
