The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 8 × 10⁻¹¹.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q11.21 — in an intron of CSGALNACT2.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Inguinal hernia. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Inguinal hernia. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Inguinal hernia. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2505559

What is rs2505559?

rs2505559 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CSGALNACT2 gene. Published research associates it with inguinal hernia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2505559 linked to?

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

Does having rs2505559 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 rs2505559 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2022, PMID:35022708. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
