Who was studied 147,997 European ancestry cases, 575,269 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0094 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0074-0.0114); p = 4 × 10−19.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 73% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q14.3 — in an intron of TYR.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Age-related hearing impairment. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Age-related hearing impairment. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Age-related hearing impairment. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs72963168
What is rs72963168?
rs72963168 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TYR gene. Published research associates it with age-related hearing impairment. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs72963168 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Age-Related Hearing Loss. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs72963168 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 rs72963168 come from?
GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2022, PMID:35580588. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
