What the study found

Who was studied 361,501 European ancestry cases, 89,535 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.14 times the odds of Completion of the aide-memoire (95% confidence interval 1.09, 1.20); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q23 — between genes, 3.5 kb from TMEM202.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Completion of the aide-memoire. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Completion of the aide-memoire. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Completion of the aide-memoire. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62017875

What is rs62017875?

rs62017875 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TMEM202 gene. Published research associates it with completion of the aide-memoire. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62017875 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 rs62017875 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:33563987. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
