Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) (PheCode 994.1)

VPS8 · rs182147673

What the study found

Who was studied 260 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,657 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,138 European ancestry cases, 446,467 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 2.48 lower (95% confidence interval 2.44-2.52); p = 6 × 10−13.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q27.2 — in an intron of VPS8.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) (PheCode 994.1). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) (PheCode 994.1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) (PheCode 994.1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs182147673

What is rs182147673?

rs182147673 is a single position in the genome, in or near the VPS8 gene. Published research associates it with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (sirs) (phecode 994.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs182147673 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 rs182147673 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.
