SCHIP1 · rs9831658

What the study found

Who was studied 47,079 British or unknown ancestry cases, 414,027 British or unknown ancestry controls; replicated in 98,298 cases, 247,446 controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.06 times the odds of Mouth ulcers (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.07); p = 2 × 10−38.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 51% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q25.33 — in an intron of SCHIP1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mouth ulcers — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mouth ulcers.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mouth ulcers compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9831658

What is rs9831658?

rs9831658 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCHIP1 gene. Published research associates it with mouth ulcers. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9831658 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 rs9831658 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:30837455. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
