What the study found

Who was studied 398 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 55,107 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,703 European ancestry cases, 313,965 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 3.23 lower (95% confidence interval 3.21-3.25); p = 5 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q22 — in an intron of ANKFN1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Takes medication for multiple sclerosis?. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Takes medication for multiple sclerosis?. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Takes medication for multiple sclerosis?. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

rs915504830 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ANKFN1 gene. Published research associates it with takes medication for multiple sclerosis?. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs915504830 linked to?

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

Does having rs915504830 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 rs915504830 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
