Questions about rs8038108

What is rs8038108?

rs8038108 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00928 gene. Published research associates it with resting oxygen saturation in chronic osbtructive pulmonary disease (pulse oxymetry). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs8038108 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 rs8038108 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol 2014, PMID:24825563. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
