What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Cannabis dependence symptom count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Cannabis dependence symptom count. That is a smaller link than two copies.

Questions about rs77378271

What is rs77378271?

rs77378271 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CSMD1 gene. Published research associates it with cannabis dependence symptom count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs77378271 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 rs77378271 come from?

GWAS Catalog, JAMA Psychiatry 2016, PMID:27028160. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
