Pyelonephritis (PheCode 590)

TRIM8 · rs184512262

What the study found

Who was studied 900 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 119,648 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 3,149 European ancestry cases, 443,721 European ancestry controls, 483 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 58,765 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 3.75 lower (95% confidence interval 3.73-3.76); p = 3 × 10−13.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.32 — in an intron of TRIM8.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Pyelonephritis (PheCode 590). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Pyelonephritis (PheCode 590). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Pyelonephritis (PheCode 590). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs184512262

What is rs184512262?

rs184512262 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TRIM8 gene. Published research associates it with pyelonephritis (phecode 590). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs184512262 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 rs184512262 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.
