Eosinophil count

LINC02937 · rs9792678

What the study found

Who was studied 234,763 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 100,553 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 82% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q22.31 — in a non-coding transcript of LINC02937.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9792678

What is rs9792678?

rs9792678 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02937 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9792678 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 rs9792678 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2021, PMID:34469753. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
