Who was studied 720 European ancestry female cases, 2,337 European ancestry female controls; replicated in 1,846 European ancestry female cases, 1,825 European ancestry female controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele carried 1.62 times the odds of Systemic lupus erythematosus (95% confidence interval 1.47-1.78); p = 2 × 10−23.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p11.2 — in an intron of ITGAM.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs9888739 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ITGAM gene. Published research associates it with systemic lupus erythematosus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs9888739 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs9888739 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 rs9888739 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18204446. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
