What the study found

Who was studied 16,924 European ancestry cases, 68,502 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.23 times the odds of Epithelial ovarian cancer (95% confidence interval 1.18577432499114-1.28197774659809); p = 7 × 10−26.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 87% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.21 — in an intron of LINC00824.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Epithelial ovarian cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Epithelial ovarian cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Epithelial ovarian cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1400482

What is rs1400482?

rs1400482 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00824 gene. Published research associates it with epithelial ovarian cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1400482 linked to?

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

Does having rs1400482 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 rs1400482 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2017, PMID:28346442. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
