The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0717 lower; p = 2 × 10−14.
Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p21.1 — in an intron of HDAC9.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Male-pattern baldness. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Male-pattern baldness. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Male-pattern baldness. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10278449
What is rs10278449?
rs10278449 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HDAC9 gene. Published research associates it with male-pattern baldness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs10278449 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs10278449 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 rs10278449 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2017, PMID:28196072. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
