What the study found

Who was studied 18,942 European ancestry cases, 501,638 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0769 higher (95% confidence interval 0.05-0.104); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 46% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q13.5 — between genes, 24.6 kb from LINC02757.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Type 1 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Type 1 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Type 1 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7936434

What is rs7936434?

rs7936434 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EMSY gene. Published research associates it with type 1 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7936434 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 1 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs7936434 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 rs7936434 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2021, PMID:34012112. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
