What the study found

Who was studied 8,168 European ancestry cases, 65,134 European ancestry controls, 1,278 African ancestry cases, 1,914 African ancestry controls; replicated in 12,111 European ancestry cases, 138,477 European ancestry controls, 247 African ancestry cases, 713 African ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 2.09 times the odds of Uterine fibroids (95% confidence interval 1.61-2.70); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.13 — between genes, 58.3 kb from LINC03079.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6094982

What is rs6094982?

rs6094982 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC105372640 gene. Published research associates it with uterine fibroids. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6094982 linked to?

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

Does having rs6094982 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 rs6094982 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Frontiers in genetics 2019, PMID:31249589. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
