What the study found

Who was studied 100,671 European ancestry cases, 2,106,212 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 0.96 times the odds of Gout (95% confidence interval 0.94-0.97); p = 7 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.3 — a missense change in IQANK1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Gout. 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 Gout. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Gout. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7845216

What is rs7845216?

rs7845216 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IQANK1 gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7845216 linked to?

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

Does having rs7845216 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 rs7845216 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39406924. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
