near LINC02063 · rs7706161

What the study found

Who was studied 11,358 European ancestry cases, 1,106,871 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.155 lower (95% confidence interval 0.13-0.18); p = 4 × 10−26.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p15.33 — between genes, 87.9 kb from LINC02063.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Raynaud's syndrome. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Raynaud's syndrome. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Raynaud's syndrome. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs7706161

What is rs7706161?

rs7706161 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02063 gene. Published research associates it with raynaud's syndrome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7706161 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 rs7706161 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell genomics 2024, PMID:39142284. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
