What the study found

Who was studied 2,115 European ancestry cases, 67,259 European ancestry controls; replicated in 1,036 European ancestry cases.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.468 lower (95% confidence interval 0.38-0.55); p = 4 × 10−26.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p16.1 — in an intron of SLC2A9.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4475146

What is rs4475146?

rs4475146 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC2A9 gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4475146 linked to?

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

Does having rs4475146 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 rs4475146 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:23263486. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
