What the study found

Who was studied 44,383 European ancestry cases, 260,715 European ancestry controls; replicated in 4,854 European ancestry cases, 33,806 European ancestry controls, 998 Caribbean ancestry cases, 5,835 Caribbean ancestry controls, 3,368 East Asian ancestry cases, 191,045 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.11 times the odds of Asthma in gastrointestinal disease (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.15); p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 26% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q34.11 — in an intron of NIBAN2.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Asthma in gastrointestinal disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Asthma in gastrointestinal disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Asthma in gastrointestinal disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2249851

What is rs2249851?

rs2249851 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NIBAN2 gene. Published research associates it with asthma in gastrointestinal disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2249851 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Asthma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2249851 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 rs2249851 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36344522. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
