Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
Strength of the evidence
2 / 4
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−21, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
How this is scored
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 16,718 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 38,787 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 8,910 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 20,404 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 1,007 East Asian ancestry cases, 2,540 East Asian ancestry controls, 80,160 European ancestry cases, 235,508 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0857 higher (95% confidence interval 0.067-0.105); p = 2 × 10−21.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 87% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p25.2 — in an intron of PPARG.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Diabetes / "Sugar". That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Diabetes / "Sugar". That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Diabetes / "Sugar". This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17036342
What is rs17036342?
rs17036342 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PPARG gene. Published research associates it with diabetes / "sugar". A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs17036342 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 rs17036342 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.
