What the study found

Who was studied 323 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 55,182 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,341 European ancestry cases, 313,327 European ancestry controls, 216 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 29,098 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.62 lower (95% confidence interval 2.58-2.66); p = 1 × 10−12.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p15 — in an intron of WDPCP.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Biological Father: Bipolar Disorder. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Biological Father: Bipolar Disorder. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Biological Father: Bipolar Disorder. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

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

Does having rs948462796 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 rs948462796 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.
