What the study found

Who was studied 16,638 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 99,303 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 7,320 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 50,236 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 443 East Asian ancestry cases, 6,209 East Asian ancestry controls, 59,205 European ancestry cases, 375,439 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0596 lower (95% confidence interval 0.043-0.076); p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 86% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p12 — in an intron of NOTCH2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes with neurological manifestations (PheCode 250.24). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes with neurological manifestations (PheCode 250.24). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes with neurological manifestations (PheCode 250.24). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs72697237

What is rs72697237?

rs72697237 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NOTCH2 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes with neurological manifestations (phecode 250.24). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs72697237 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs72697237 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 rs72697237 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
