What the study found

Who was studied 668 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,030 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,965 European ancestry cases, 445,265 European ancestry controls, 285 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,183 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 2.75 lower (95% confidence interval 2.71-2.78); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q21.1 — in an intron of LINC00492.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Respiratory insufficiency (PheCode 509.2). 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 Respiratory insufficiency (PheCode 509.2). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Respiratory insufficiency (PheCode 509.2). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs181840138

What is rs181840138?

rs181840138 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00492 gene. Published research associates it with respiratory insufficiency (phecode 509.2). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs181840138 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Respiratory Insufficiency. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs181840138 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 rs181840138 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.
