What the study found
Who was studied 222 South East Asian ancestry, East Asian ancestry, South Asian ancestry, African American or Afro-Caribbean, European ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern, North African or Persian) cases, 2,466 Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern, North African or Persian), Hispanic or Latin American, NR moderate to severe atopic dermatitis cases, 2,466 South East Asian ancestry, East Asian ancestry, South Asian ancestry, African American or Afro-Caribbean, European ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern, North African or Persian) cases, 2,466 Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern, North African or Persian), Hispanic or Latin American, NR controls without moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.
The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.874 higher (95% confidence interval 0.666-1.081); p = 2 × 10−16.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q32.3 — in an intron of CPE.
rs1438119 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CPE gene. Published research associates it with atopic dermatitis (moderate to severe). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Atopic Dermatitis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
