Who was studied 1,254 whole genome sequenced European ancestry individuals, 3,072 whole genome sequenced individuals, 41,450 European ancestry individuals, 397 Carlantino (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, 791 Friuli Venezia Giulia (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, 1,060 Mylopotamos (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, 887 Pomak (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, 1,754 Val Borbera (founder/genetic isolate) individuals; replicated in 206,737 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.11 higher (95% confidence interval 0.071-0.149); p = 4 × 10−8.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 96% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p11.21 — in an intron of ZMAT4.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Waist circumference. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/COne copy of the version the research linked to Waist circumference. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Waist circumference. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs184622626
What is rs184622626?
rs184622626 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZMAT4 gene. Published research associates it with waist circumference. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs184622626 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Waist Circumference. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs184622626 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 rs184622626 come from?
GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2017, PMID:28552196. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
