What the study found

Who was studied 2,267 European ancestry cases, 23,173 European ancestry controls, 99 East Asian ancestry cases, 5,372 East Asian ancestry controls, 116 African American cases, 3,774 African American controls; replicated in 1,268 European ancestry cases, 365,282 European ancestry controls, 29 African American cases, 560 African American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.8 higher (95% confidence interval 1.19-2.41); p = 7 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.1 — between genes, 3.9 kb from KRT18P1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Small cell lung carcinoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Small cell lung carcinoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Small cell lung carcinoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs191133092

What is rs191133092?

rs191133092 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KRT18P1 gene. Published research associates it with small cell lung carcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs191133092 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 rs191133092 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35915169. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
