What the study found

Who was studied 774 Han Chinese ancestry cases, 2,009 Han Chinese ancestry controls; replicated in 764 Han Chinese ancestry cases, 3594 Han Chinese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.82 times the odds of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (95% confidence interval 1.60–2.05); p = 3 × 10−21.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p31.3 — in an intron of IL23R.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs117633859

What is rs117633859?

rs117633859 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C1orf141 gene. Published research associates it with vogt-koyanagi-harada syndrome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs117633859 linked to?

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

Does having rs117633859 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 rs117633859 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25108386. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
