Age-related hearing impairment (high frequency)

IPP · rs61784824

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Age-related hearing impairment (high frequency) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2019, PMID:31645637)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Age-related hearing impairment (high frequency). (GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2019, PMID:31645637)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Age-related hearing impairment (high frequency) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2019, PMID:31645637)

Questions about rs61784824

What is rs61784824?

rs61784824 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IPP gene. Published research associates it with age-related hearing impairment (high frequency). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs61784824 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 rs61784824 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2019, PMID:31645637. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
