Questions about rs1423056

What is rs1423056?

rs1423056 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CEBPA gene. Published research associates it with waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for bmi in active individuals. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1423056 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Waist-to-Hip Ratio (Body Fat Distribution). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1423056 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 rs1423056 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2017, PMID:28448500. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
