Who was studied 3,655 European ancestry cases, 254,909 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele carried 1.78 times the odds of Fuchs's corneal dystrophy (95% confidence interval 1.59003-1.98195); p = 2 × 10−24.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p31.3 — in an intron of KANK4.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Fuchs's corneal dystrophy. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Fuchs's corneal dystrophy. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Fuchs's corneal dystrophy. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs79742895
What is rs79742895?
rs79742895 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KANK4 gene. Published research associates it with fuchs's corneal dystrophy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs79742895 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Fuchs's Corneal Dystrophy. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs79742895 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 rs79742895 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2024, PMID:38582945. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
