Who was studied 19,840 European ancestry individuals; replicated in Up to 20,623 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.25 s.d. lower (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.31); p = 2 × 10−41.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.3 — between genes, 19.4 kb from LPL.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Triglycerides. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Triglycerides. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Triglycerides. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
Papers in Europe PMC whose title or abstract names both this rsID and that subject. A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together — it is not a claim that this position explains the subject.
Questions about rs12678919
What is rs12678919?
rs12678919 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LPL gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs12678919 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to High Triglycerides. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
What do people read about alongside rs12678919?
Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include heart and circulation (2 papers), cholesterol and blood fats (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.
Does having rs12678919 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 rs12678919 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:19060906. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
