near KLHL42 · rs10743612

What the study found

Who was studied 10,217 European ancestry individuals, 5,717 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.093 higher (95% confidence interval 0.068-0.118); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p11.22 — between genes, 56.1 kb from RN7SKP15.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Hip shape (DXA scan) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Hip shape (DXA scan).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Hip shape (DXA scan) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs10743612

What is rs10743612?

rs10743612 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KLHL42 gene. Published research associates it with hip shape (dxa scan). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10743612 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 rs10743612 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Bone Miner Res 2018, PMID:30320955. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
