IL6 and Anxiety: We observed significant association of IL6 variant rs2069827 with depressive symptoms (effect size among cases, βCAS = −4.98 for each copy of the T allele; effect size among controls, βCON = −2.80; inverse variance‐weighted fixed effects meta‐analysis of effect in cases and controls, p‐valueMETA = 7.15×10−4), and a trend for association of rs2069827 with anxiety (βCAS = −3.66 for each copy of the T allele; βCON = 0.07; pMETA = 0.006).
