What the study found

Who was studied 201,533 European ancestry cases, 901,637 European ancestry controls, 5,506 East Asian ancestry cases, 126,769 East Asian ancestry controls, 4,149 African or African American cases, 21,448 African or African American controls, 1,087 South Asian ancestry cases, 18,871 South Asian ancestry controls, 842 Hispanic cases, 3,489 Hispanic controls, 722 Admixed ancestry cases, 8,268 Admixed ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 0.97 times the odds of Osteoarthritis of the hip or knee (95% confidence interval 0.95449220884569-0.975676500810202); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p16.3 — in an intron of TMED11P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7659054

What is rs7659054?

rs7659054 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMED11P gene. Published research associates it with osteoarthritis of the hip or knee. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7659054 linked to?

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

Does having rs7659054 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 rs7659054 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2025, PMID:40205036. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
