Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 33,748 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 6.34 z score higher; p = 2 × 10⁻¹⁰.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 14% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.2 — in an intron of NCAM1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Vertex-wise cortical surface area compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Vertex-wise cortical surface area.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Vertex-wise cortical surface area — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs4143165

What is rs4143165?

rs4143165 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NCAM1 gene. Published research associates it with vertex-wise cortical surface area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4143165 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 rs4143165 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2021, PMID:34910505. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
