Platelet count

near MAGOH3P · rs117524719

What the study found

Who was studied 145,648 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0858 SD units lower (95% confidence interval 0.063-0.109); p = 4 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 96% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q24.1 — between genes, 27.7 kb from MAGOH3P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs117524719

What is rs117524719?

rs117524719 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MAGOH3P gene. Published research associates it with platelet count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117524719 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 rs117524719 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
