White matter hyperintensity burden

SH3PXD2A · rs7909791

What the study found

Who was studied 17,936 European ancestry individuals, 1,943 African American ancestry individuals, 795 Hispanic individuals, 204 Chinese ancestry individuals, 201 Malay ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.33 — in an intron of SH3PXD2A.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to White matter hyperintensity burden. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to White matter hyperintensity burden. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to White matter hyperintensity burden. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7909791

What is rs7909791?

rs7909791 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SH3PXD2A gene. Published research associates it with white matter hyperintensity burden. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7909791 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 rs7909791 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circulation. Cardiovascular genetics 2015, PMID:25663218. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
