What the study found

Who was studied 229 European ancestry cases, 1,088 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 2.05 times the odds of Takayasu arteritis (95% confidence interval 1.571-2.664); p = 1 × 10−7.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q21.31 — between genes, 54 kb from LOC105370238.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Takayasu arteritis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Takayasu arteritis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Takayasu arteritis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs9540128

What is rs9540128?

rs9540128 is a single position in the genome, in or near the chr13q21 gene. Published research associates it with takayasu arteritis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9540128 linked to?

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

Does having rs9540128 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 rs9540128 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2020, PMID:33308445. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
