Number of decayed, missing and filled tooth surfaces or use of dentures

STAG1 · rs61790808

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−8, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 14,976 European ancestry individuals with decayed, missing or filled tooth surface measurement, 11,816 Hispanic/Latino individuals with decayed, missing or filled tooth surface measurement, 77,714 European ancestry dentures cases, 383,317 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.016 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.021); p = 9 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 64% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q22.3 — in an intron of STAG1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Number of decayed, missing and filled tooth surfaces or use of dentures. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Number of decayed, missing and filled tooth surfaces or use of dentures. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Number of decayed, missing and filled tooth surfaces or use of dentures. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs61790808

What is rs61790808?

rs61790808 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STAG1 gene. Published research associates it with number of decayed, missing and filled tooth surfaces or use of dentures. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs61790808 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 rs61790808 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:31235808. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
