Global cortical thickness (GlobalMeanMean)

PPP2R2A · rs77690628

What the study found

Who was studied 34,552 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 6 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.2 — in an intron of PPP2R2A.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Global cortical thickness (GlobalMeanMean). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Global cortical thickness (GlobalMeanMean). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Global cortical thickness (GlobalMeanMean). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs77690628

What is rs77690628?

rs77690628 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PPP2R2A gene. Published research associates it with global cortical thickness (globalmeanmean). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs77690628 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 rs77690628 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:38890310. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
