Menopause (age at onset)

near NPIPB2 · rs10852344

Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 38,968 European ancestry female individuals; replicated in Up to 14,435 European ancestry female individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.168 years higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.22); p = 1 × 10⁻¹¹.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.13 — between genes, 4.2 kb from NPIPB2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Menopause (age at onset). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Menopause (age at onset). That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Menopause (age at onset). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10852344

What is rs10852344?

rs10852344 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NPIPB2 gene. Published research associates it with menopause (age at onset). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10852344 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Age at Menopause. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

What do people read about alongside rs10852344?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include menopause (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs10852344 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 rs10852344 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22267201. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
