Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse

ALPG · rs117962550

What the study found

Who was studied 181 Chinese Han ancestry cases, 1,835 Chinese Han ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 4.13 times the odds of Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse (95% confidence interval 2.632-6.492); p = 7 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q37.1 — in an intron of ALPG.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs117962550

What is rs117962550?

rs117962550 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALPG gene. Published research associates it with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without relapse. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117962550 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 rs117962550 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genes & diseases 2024, PMID:38560502. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
