What the study found

Who was studied 457 European ancestry amenorrheic cases, 711 European ancestry post-chemotherapy menses cases.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.74 times the odds of Adverse response to chemotherapy (amenorrhea) in breast cancer; p = 6 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 7% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q24.2 — in an intron of PPCDC.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Adverse response to chemotherapy (amenorrhea) in breast cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Adverse response to chemotherapy (amenorrhea) in breast cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Adverse response to chemotherapy (amenorrhea) in breast cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
