What the study found

Who was studied 255 European ancestry female cases, 1,579 European ancestry female controls.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 4 × 10−8.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q24.3 — between genes, 16.2 kb from BARX2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4370952

What is rs4370952?

rs4370952 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near BARX2 gene. Published research associates it with pediatric obstructive sleep apnea. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4370952 linked to?

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

Does having rs4370952 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 rs4370952 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Sleep 2024, PMID:35902206. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
