What the study found

Who was studied 19,954 European ancestry cases, 107,715 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.15 higher (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.19); p = 8 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q22.1 — between genes, 85.6 kb from BCLAF1P1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6893213

What is rs6893213?

rs6893213 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC25A46 gene. Published research associates it with asthma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6893213 linked to?

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

Does having rs6893213 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 rs6893213 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:29273806. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
