Questions about rs726288

What is rs726288?

rs726288 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SFTPD 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 rs726288 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 rs726288 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 rs726288 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.
