What the study found

Who was studied 55,105 European ancestry cases, 3,026 East Asian ancestry cases, 65,079 European ancestry controls, 2,268 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.07 times the odds of Colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma (95% confidence interval 1.04-1.09); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p13 — between genes, 0.8 kb from TBRG4.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12672022

What is rs12672022?

rs12672022 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TBRG4 gene. Published research associates it with colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12672022 linked to?

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

Does having rs12672022 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 rs12672022 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30510241. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
