What the study found

Who was studied 856 European ancestry cases, 2,836 European ancestry controls; replicated in 1,298 European ancestry cases, 7,136 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.34 times the odds of Dupuytren's disease (95% confidence interval 1.25-1.45); p = 7 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 28% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.43 — in an intron of DUXA.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Dupuytren's disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Dupuytren's disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Dupuytren's disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11672517

What is rs11672517?

rs11672517 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DUXA gene. Published research associates it with dupuytren's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11672517 linked to?

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

Does having rs11672517 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 rs11672517 come from?

GWAS Catalog, N Engl J Med 2011, PMID:21732829. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
