Who was studied 15,106 European ancestry cases, 1,405,552 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0882 lower (95% confidence interval 0.061-0.116); p = 3 × 10−10.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 47% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q12.2 — in an intron of HORMAD2-AS1.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lymphocytic thyroiditis compared to the general population.
C/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lymphocytic thyroiditis.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lymphocytic thyroiditis — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs757024
What is rs757024?
rs757024 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HORMAD2 gene. Published research associates it with lymphocytic thyroiditis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs757024 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Lymphocytic Thyroiditis (Hashimoto's). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs757024 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 rs757024 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:41644669. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
