via spitoon reports about which identifies 32 snps relevant to Crohn's disease: Out of a possible total of 46, 80% of people will have between 17 and 25 copies of the riskier versions of these SNPs. Because there are so many of these SNPs--and because the riskier versions are often more common than their less risky counterparts--even people at the high end of the distribution are not much more likely than average to develop Crohn's disease. *rs3197999 A 1.2 *rs2188962 T 1.25 *rs2476601 G 1.31 *rs2274910 C 1.14 *rs9286879 G 1.19 *rs10045431 C 1.11 *rs6908425 C 1.21 *rs2301436 T 1.21 *rs1456893 A 1.2 *rs1551398 A 1.08 *rs10758669 C 1.12 *rs3764147 G 1.25 *rs2872507 A 1.12 *rs744166 A 1.18 *rs762421 G 1.13 *rs3763313 C 1.19 Proxy snps on 23andMe *rs7714584 G 1.33 *rs6478108 T 1.22 *rs12122721 G 1.18 *rs7923172 A 1.16 *rs11564187 G 1.54 *rs1736148 T 1.18 *rs2024092 A 1.02
