Total testosterone levels

ARID1B · rs287884

What the study found

Who was studied 230,454 European ancestry women.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0186 higher (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.024); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 44% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q25.3 — in an intron of ARID1B.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs287884

What is rs287884?

rs287884 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARID1B gene. Published research associates it with total testosterone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs287884 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 rs287884 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature medicine 2020, PMID:32042192. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
