Chondromalacia

ARHGAP15 · rs144449054

What the study found

Who was studied 3,872 European ancestry cases, 518,212 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 3.27 times the odds of Chondromalacia (95% confidence interval 2.14-4.62); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q22.2 — in an intron of ARHGAP15.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs144449054

What is rs144449054?

rs144449054 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARHGAP15 gene. Published research associates it with chondromalacia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs144449054 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 rs144449054 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cartilage 2022, PMID:36068934. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
