What the study found

Who was studied 33,262 European ancestry cases, 804,234 European ancestry controls; replicated in 7,267 East Asian ancestry cases, 219,529 East Asian ancestry controls, 2,785 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 3,933 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.411 higher (95% confidence interval 0.28-0.54); p = 1 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.2 — in the 5′ untranslated region of RPRD2.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Atopic dermatitis — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Atopic dermatitis.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Atopic dermatitis compared to the general population.

Questions about rs587738237

What is rs587738237?

rs587738237 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RPRD2 gene. Published research associates it with atopic dermatitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs587738237 linked to?

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

Does having rs587738237 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 rs587738237 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The Journal of investigative dermatology 2022, PMID:35577104. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
