What the study found

Who was studied 797 European ancestry cases, 140,558 European ancestry controls; replicated in 2,812 European ancestry cases, 229,788 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.19 times the odds of Polycystic ovary syndrome (adjusted for age) (95% confidence interval 1.13–1.25] ); p = 5 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 36% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q34 — in an intron of ERBB4.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7564590

What is rs7564590?

rs7564590 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ERB4 gene. Published research associates it with polycystic ovary syndrome (adjusted for age). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7564590 linked to?

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

Does having rs7564590 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 rs7564590 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Reprod 2021, PMID:34791234. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
