Who was studied 13,292 European ancestry cases, 67,596 European ancestry controls; replicated in 7,042 European ancestry cases, 13,599 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele carried 1.11 times the odds of Lung adenocarcinoma (95% confidence interval 1.084-1.141); p = 5 × 10−16.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q22.1 — in an intron of DCBLD1.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4946259
What is rs4946259?
rs4946259 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DCBLD1 gene. Published research associates it with lung adenocarcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs4946259 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to EGFR Mutation-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs4946259 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 rs4946259 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39366959. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
