The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0347 higher (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.043); p = 2 × 10−16.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for body mass index. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
