What the study found

Who was studied 2,965,643 European ancestry, East Asian ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American, African ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.00539 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0037-0.0071); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 36% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p13.2 — in an intron of EBLN3P.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Drinks per week compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Drinks per week.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Drinks per week — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs7857936

What is rs7857936?

rs7857936 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EBLN3P gene. Published research associates it with drinks per week. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7857936 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 rs7857936 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2022, PMID:36477530. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
