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 5,461 European ancestry lean females, 2,726 European ancestry lean males, 6,563 European ancestry overweight or obese females, 4,020 European ancestry overweight or obese males..
The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 67 kcals higher (95% confidence interval 45-90); p = 5 × 10−9.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.1 — in an intron of SERGEF.
rs142343672 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC107984317 gene. Published research associates it with energy expenditure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
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.
