What the study found

Who was studied 15,097 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 88,327 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 3,485 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 49,682 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 306 East Asian ancestry cases, 5,753 East Asian ancestry controls, 42,997 European ancestry cases, 368,045 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0806 lower (95% confidence interval 0.064-0.097); p = 4 × 10−18.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 83% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q21.31 — between genes, 16.1 kb from LNCARSR.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Cancer of prostate (PheCode 185). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Cancer of prostate (PheCode 185). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Cancer of prostate (PheCode 185). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1417078

What is rs1417078?

rs1417078 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LNCARSR gene. Published research associates it with cancer of prostate (phecode 185). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1417078 linked to?

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

Does having rs1417078 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 rs1417078 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
