PTPRD · rs183168537

What the study found

Who was studied 633 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,286 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,549 European ancestry cases, 446,736 European ancestry controls, 273 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,198 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 3.65 lower (95% confidence interval 3.63-3.67); p = 4 × 10−11.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p23 — in an intron of PTPRD.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Dyshidrosis (PheCode 705.1) compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Dyshidrosis (PheCode 705.1).
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Dyshidrosis (PheCode 705.1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs183168537

What is rs183168537?

rs183168537 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PTPRD gene. Published research associates it with dyshidrosis (phecode 705.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs183168537 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 rs183168537 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.
