Who was studied 62,808 European ancestry cases, 1,377,716 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.068 lower (95% confidence interval 0.044-0.092); p = 6 × 10−9.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q13 — in an intron of FBLN7.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Fibromyalgia. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Fibromyalgia. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Fibromyalgia. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs72831629
What is rs72831629?
rs72831629 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FBLN7 gene. Published research associates it with fibromyalgia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs72831629 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Fibromyalgia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs72831629 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 rs72831629 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42521668. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
