DHX36 · rs9823832

What the study found

Who was studied 31,374 European ancestry cases, 414,052 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.114 lower (95% confidence interval 0.097-0.132); p = 9 × 10−37.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q25.2 — in an intron of DHX36.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Epiretinal membrane. 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 Epiretinal membrane. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Epiretinal membrane. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9823832

What is rs9823832?

rs9823832 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DHX36 gene. Published research associates it with epiretinal membrane. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9823832 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 rs9823832 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell genomics 2024, PMID:38870908. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
