What the study found

Who was studied 186,825 British ancestry men.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0642 higher (95% confidence interval 0.049-0.08); p = 1 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p32.3 — in an intron of FAF1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs114540602

What is rs114540602?

rs114540602 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FAF1 gene. Published research associates it with hip circumference adjusted for bmi. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs114540602 linked to?

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

Does having rs114540602 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.
