near ADAMTS6 · rs4700076

Where this position leads

Condition: Inguinal Hernia

rs4700076 Condition: Inguinal Hernia Inguinal Hernia Condition rs4700076 rs4700076 near ADAMTS6

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−9, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 13,047 European ancestry cases, 262,499 European ancestry controls; replicated in 4,450 European ancestry cases, 87,398 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 72% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q12.3 — between genes, 0.5 kb from ADAMTS6.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4700076

What is rs4700076?

rs4700076 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ADAMTS6 gene. Published research associates it with inguinal hernia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4700076 linked to?

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

Does having rs4700076 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 rs4700076 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery 2022, PMID:34382107. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
