What the study found

Who was studied 7,423 East Asian ancestry cases, 171,303 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.709 higher (95% confidence interval 0.56-0.85); p = 5 × 10−22.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — between genes, 2 kb from HLA-B.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs28380929

What is rs28380929?

rs28380929 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-B gene. Published research associates it with pneumonia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs28380929 linked to?

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

Does having rs28380929 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 rs28380929 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
