Anterior amygdaloid area volume

near MIR124-1HG · rs17734690

What the study found

Who was studied 31,690 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.442 higher (95% confidence interval 0.31-0.57); p = 6 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p23.1 — between genes, 44.1 kb from MIR124-1HG.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Anterior amygdaloid area volume. 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 Anterior amygdaloid area volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Anterior amygdaloid area volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17734690

What is rs17734690?

rs17734690 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MIR124-1HG gene. Published research associates it with anterior amygdaloid area volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17734690 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 rs17734690 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2024, PMID:37391117. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
