Warfarin-associated bleeding

near EPHA7 · rs78132896

What the study found

Who was studied 31 African American cases, 184 African American controls; replicated in 40 African American cases, 148 African American controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 8.27 times the odds of Warfarin-associated bleeding (95% confidence interval 4.18-16.38); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q16.1 — between genes, 0.7 kb from EPHA7.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs78132896

What is rs78132896?

rs78132896 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near EPHA7 gene. Published research associates it with warfarin-associated bleeding. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78132896 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 rs78132896 come from?

GWAS Catalog, JAMA 2018, PMID:30357299. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
