What the study found

Who was studied 254 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,164 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,694 European ancestry cases, 444,824 European ancestry controls, 216 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,353 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.33 lower (95% confidence interval 2.28-2.38); p = 1 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q28.3 — between genes, 184 kb from GAPDHP56.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Ulcer of esophagus (PheCode 530.12). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs535597961

What is rs535597961?

rs535597961 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near GAPDHP56 gene. Published research associates it with ulcer of esophagus (phecode 530.12). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs535597961 linked to?

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

Does having rs535597961 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 rs535597961 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
