Uterine leiomyomata

LINC02627 · rs17119191

What the study found

Who was studied 38,466 European ancestry cases, 329,437 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 0.76 times the odds of Uterine leiomyomata (95% confidence interval 0.7-0.82); p = 6 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q25.1 — in an intron of LINC02627.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs17119191

What is rs17119191?

rs17119191 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02627 gene. Published research associates it with uterine leiomyomata. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17119191 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 rs17119191 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:36726022. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
