near MIR2113 · rs12189679

What the study found

Who was studied 336,633 European ancestry cases, 114,464 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.01 times the odds of Participation in an health questionnaire (not invited vs invited) (95% confidence interval 1.005, 1.008); p = 2 × 10−12.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 54% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q16.1 — between genes, 139 kb from MIR2113.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Participation in an health questionnaire (not invited vs invited). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Participation in an health questionnaire (not invited vs invited). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Participation in an health questionnaire (not invited vs invited). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12189679

What is rs12189679?

rs12189679 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MIR2113 gene. Published research associates it with participation in an health questionnaire (not invited vs invited). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12189679 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 rs12189679 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:33563987. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
