The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0427 higher (95% confidence interval 0.038-0.048); p = 2 × 10−66.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome X, band Xp22.31 — between genes, 18 kb from LINC03114.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Male-pattern baldness — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Male-pattern baldness.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Male-pattern baldness compared to the general population.

Questions about rs112591782
What is rs112591782?
rs112591782 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FAM9B 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 rs112591782 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 rs112591782 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 rs112591782 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2018, PMID:30573740. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
