Who was studied 15,106 European ancestry cases, 1,405,552 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0896 lower (95% confidence interval 0.064-0.115); p = 1 × 10−11.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 40% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p24.3 — in an intron of MIR3681HG.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lymphocytic thyroiditis — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/CPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lymphocytic thyroiditis.
C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lymphocytic thyroiditis compared to the general population.

Questions about rs1534424
What is rs1534424?
rs1534424 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TRIB2 gene. Published research associates it with lymphocytic thyroiditis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1534424 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Lymphocytic Thyroiditis (Hashimoto's). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs1534424 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 rs1534424 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:41644669. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
