What the study found

Who was studied 20,016 European ancestry cases, 380,433 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 7 × 10−18.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — between genes, 12.7 kb from HLA-DQA1.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Eczema — no copies of the reported risk allele.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Eczema.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Eczema compared to the general population.

Questions about rs13208697

What is rs13208697?

rs13208697 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-DQA1 gene. Published research associates it with eczema. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13208697 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Hay Fever And/or Eczema. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs13208697 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 rs13208697 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34785669. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
