What the study found

Who was studied 254 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,164 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,694 European ancestry cases, 444,824 European ancestry controls, 216 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,353 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 4.38 lower (95% confidence interval 4.38-4.39); p = 1 × 10−11.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q24.3 — between genes, 132.3 kb from SASH1.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs149697790

What is rs149697790?

rs149697790 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SASH1 gene. Published research associates it with ulcer of esophagus (phecode 530.12). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs149697790 linked to?

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

Does having rs149697790 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 rs149697790 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.
