What the study found

Who was studied 1,096 European ancestry cases, 12,459 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.74 times the odds of Pediatric steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome (95% confidence interval 1.58-1.93); p = 2 × 10−27.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q22.1 — between genes, 2.2 kb from CALHM6.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Pediatric steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Pediatric steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Pediatric steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2637678

What is rs2637678?

rs2637678 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CALHM6 gene. Published research associates it with pediatric steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2637678 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Childhood Steroid-Sensitive Nephrotic Syndrome. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2637678 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 rs2637678 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37120605. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
