What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Rheumatoid arthritis — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2013, PMID:24390342)

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Rheumatoid arthritis. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2013, PMID:24390342)

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Rheumatoid arthritis compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2013, PMID:24390342)

Questions about rs71508903

What is rs71508903?

rs71508903 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARID5B gene. Published research associates it with rheumatoid arthritis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs71508903 linked to?

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

Does having rs71508903 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 rs71508903 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2013, PMID:24390342. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
