What the study found

Who was studied 6,377 European ancestry male cases, 5,794 European ancestry female cases, 22,243 European ancestry male controls, 34,619 European ancestry female controls; replicated in 12,938 European ancestry male cases, 8,553 European ancestry female cases, 904 Pakistani ancestry male cases, 274 Pakistani ancestry female cases, 30,273 European ancestry male controls, 25,374 European ancestry female controls, 2,088 Pakistani ancestry male controls, 384 Pakistani ancestry female controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.16 times the odds of Type 2 diabetes (95% confidence interval 1.11-1.22); p = 5 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p21 — in an intron of THADA.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Type 2 diabetes — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Type 2 diabetes.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Type 2 diabetes compared to the general population.

Questions about rs13405158

What is rs13405158?

rs13405158 is a single position in the genome, in or near the THADA gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13405158 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs13405158 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 rs13405158 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22885922. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
