BMI-adjusted waist-hip ratio

INHBE · rs150777893

What the study found

Who was studied 458,317 European ancestry individuals, 138,792 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 8,948 African ancestry individuals, 2,203 East Asian ancestry individuals, 10,115 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.22 lower (95% confidence interval -0.29--0.15); p = 1 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q13.3 — inside INHBE.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to BMI-adjusted waist-hip ratio. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to BMI-adjusted waist-hip ratio. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to BMI-adjusted waist-hip ratio. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs150777893

What is rs150777893?

rs150777893 is a single position in the genome, in or near the INHBE gene. Published research associates it with bmi-adjusted waist-hip ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs150777893 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 rs150777893 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35999217. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
