What the study found

Who was studied 77,627 European ancestry cases, 933,894 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.16 times the odds of Gout (95% confidence interval 1.12-1.2); p = 2 × 10−15.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q31.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of HOXD10.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Congenital vertical talus; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-01-13. ClinVar record 332507 NM_002148.4(HOXD10):c.*585C>T

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Gout. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Gout. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Gout. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs72923454

What is rs72923454?

rs72923454 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HOXD10 gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs72923454 linked to?

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

Does having rs72923454 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 rs72923454 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39406924. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
