What the study found
Who was studied 593,724 European ancestry cases, 1,771,286 European ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.009 lower (95% confidence interval 0.007-0.011); p = 1 × 10−23.
Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q31.1 — in an intron of FOXP2.
rs8180817 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FOXP2 gene. Published research associates it with insomnia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Insomnia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
