What the study found

Who was studied 412 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 104,388 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,512 European ancestry cases, 413,591 European ancestry controls, 275 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 53,398 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.39 lower (95% confidence interval 2.35-2.44); p = 4 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q21 — between genes, 44.5 kb from LINC02836.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Peyronie's disease (PheCode 604.3). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Peyronie's disease (PheCode 604.3). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Peyronie's disease (PheCode 604.3). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs143888834

What is rs143888834?

rs143888834 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02836 gene. Published research associates it with peyronie's disease (phecode 604.3). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs143888834 linked to?

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

Does having rs143888834 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 rs143888834 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.
