Questions about rs148771817

What is rs148771817?

rs148771817 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CPED1/WNT16 gene. Published research associates it with forearm bone mineral density. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs148771817 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Femoral Neck Bone Mineral Density. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs148771817 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 rs148771817 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2015, PMID:26367794. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
