What the study found

Who was studied 651,923 European ancestry males, 679,087 European ancestry females.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.06 times the odds of Insomnia (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.08); p = 1 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q21.3 — in an intron of LINC00534.

What each result means

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