Thyroid stimulating hormone levels

SCNN1B · rs7203093

Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 247,107 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 63,326 European ancestry individuals, 33,171 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0333 lower (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.042); p = 4 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 91% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p12.2 — in a regulatory region of SCNN1B.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Thyroid stimulating hormone levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Thyroid stimulating hormone levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Thyroid stimulating hormone levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs7203093

What is rs7203093?

rs7203093 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCNN1B gene. Published research associates it with thyroid stimulating hormone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7203093 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 rs7203093 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37872160. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
