Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 219,872 British ancestry women.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.027 higher (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.035); p = 4 × 10⁻¹⁰.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q31.1 — between genes, 36.6 kb from RN7SKP191.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Waist-hip index — no copies of the reported risk allele.

A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Waist-hip index.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Waist-hip index compared to the general population.

Questions about rs12350344

What is rs12350344?

rs12350344 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RN7SKP191 gene. Published research associates it with waist-hip index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12350344 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 rs12350344 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2021, PMID:34021172. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
