Irritable mood research uses self-report items to study how easily people feel irritated or annoyed.
GWAS work has identified variants linked to self-reported irritability, with overlap with neuroticism and other mood-related traits.
This result reflects research-level variation in mood-related traits and is not a clinical assessment.
Sleep, stress, hunger, life events, mental health, and overall context strongly shape day-to-day irritability.

Average genetic tendency
This is a weak, population-level genetic association, not a personal diagnosis or a definitive trait.

DNA Genics reports genotypes based on the 'positive' strand of the human genome reference sequence (build 37/HG19). Other companies may use the opposite strand, so genotypes may need conversion for comparison.
The following peer-reviewed scientific studies support the genetic associations analyzed in this report.
