Who was studied 656 Chinese ancestry cases, 736 Chinese ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.64 higher (95% confidence interval 0.44-0.84); p = 3 × 10−10.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p12 — between genes, 59.1 kb from LINC01851.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Late-onset Alzheimer's disease. 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 Late-onset Alzheimer's disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Late-onset Alzheimer's disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs79872316
What is rs79872316?
rs79872316 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC01851 gene. Published research associates it with late-onset alzheimer's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs79872316 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Alzheimer's Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs79872316 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 rs79872316 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2024, PMID:39023044. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
