Who was studied 1,930 European ancestry cases, 13,634 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele carried 6.62 times the odds of Eosinophilic esophagitis (95% confidence interval 3.59-12.19); p = 1 × 10−9.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q13.4 — in an intron of SHANK2.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophilic esophagitis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophilic esophagitis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Eosinophilic esophagitis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs182139615
What is rs182139615?
rs182139615 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SHANK2 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophilic esophagitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs182139615 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Eosinophilic Esophagitis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs182139615 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 rs182139615 come from?
GWAS Catalog, The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology 2022, PMID:34506852. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
