Strength of the evidence

2 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−33, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 21,816 African ancestry, admixed American, East Asian ancestry, European ancestry, South Asian ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern cases, 2,895,812 African ancestry, admixed American, East Asian ancestry, European ancestry, South Asian ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.36 higher (95% confidence interval 0.3-0.42); p = 3 × 10−33.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.33 — between genes, 21.1 kb from STN1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs75263779

What is rs75263779?

rs75263779 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near STN1 gene. Published research associates it with thyroid cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs75263779 linked to?

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

Does having rs75263779 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 rs75263779 come from?

GWAS Catalog, GWAS Catalog n.d., PMID:41644669. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
