rs7506921 Condition: Migraine Migraine Condition rs7506921 rs7506921 near RBBP8

What the study found

Who was studied 102,084 European ancestry cases, 771,257 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.04 higher (95% confidence interval 1.03-1.05); p = 1 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 53% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q11.2 — in an intron of RBBP8-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Migraine. 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 Migraine. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Migraine. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7506921

What is rs7506921?

rs7506921 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RBBP8 gene. Published research associates it with migraine. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7506921 linked to?

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

Does having rs7506921 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 rs7506921 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35115687. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
