Water consumption (glasses per day) (UKB data field 1528)

LINC02698 · rs11215686

What the study found

Who was studied 445,965 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0132 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0091-0.0173); p = 4 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 53% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — in an intron of LINC02698.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Water consumption (glasses per day) (UKB data field 1528). 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 Water consumption (glasses per day) (UKB data field 1528). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Water consumption (glasses per day) (UKB data field 1528). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11215686

What is rs11215686?

rs11215686 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02698 gene. Published research associates it with water consumption (glasses per day) (ukb data field 1528). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11215686 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 rs11215686 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32193382. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
