What the study found

Who was studied Up to 32,961 European and East Asian ancestry individuals; replicated in Up to 50,933 European and East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.06 lower; p = 2 × 10−22.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 80% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q12.1 — between genes, 29.7 kb from LINC02127.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1566045

What is rs1566045?

rs1566045 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SALL1 gene. Published research associates it with femoral neck 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 rs1566045 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 rs1566045 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 rs1566045 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2012, PMID:22504420. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
