What the study found

Who was studied 38,314 European ancestry male cases, 701,594 European ancestry male controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0612 higher (95% confidence interval 0.044-0.079); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 37% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.32 — in an intron of LINC02086.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs3096648

What is rs3096648?

rs3096648 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02086 gene. Published research associates it with restless legs 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 rs3096648 linked to?

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

Does having rs3096648 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 rs3096648 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:38839884. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
