What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.067 lower (95% confidence interval 0.06-0.074); p = 3 × 10−78.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 11% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q13.13 — between genes, 2.8 kb from DAZAP2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs117327684

What is rs117327684?

rs117327684 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SMAGP gene. Published research associates it with mean platelet volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs117327684 linked to?

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

Does having rs117327684 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 rs117327684 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
