What the study found

Who was studied 670,471 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0147 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.018); p = 3 × 10−16.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 55% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q21.31 — between genes, 221.8 kb from LINC00355.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Self-reported math ability (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Self-reported math ability (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Self-reported math ability (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1856765

What is rs1856765?

rs1856765 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC00355 gene. Published research associates it with self-reported math ability (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1856765 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Educational Attainment. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1856765 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 rs1856765 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2018, PMID:30038396. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
