Who was studied 392 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,065 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,904 European ancestry cases, 447,836 European ancestry controls, 226 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,493 Hispanic or Latin American controls.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 5 lower (95% confidence interval 4.99-5.01); p = 1 × 10−11.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p25.2 — between genes, 245.2 kb from LINC01248.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Thyroiditis (PheCode 245). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Thyroiditis (PheCode 245). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Thyroiditis (PheCode 245). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs542203472
What is rs542203472?
rs542203472 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC01248 gene. Published research associates it with thyroiditis (phecode 245). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs542203472 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Thyroiditis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs542203472 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 rs542203472 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.
