What the study found

Who was studied 430,445 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0194 higher (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.025); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p22.1 — in an intron of TMED5.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1967721

What is rs1967721?

rs1967721 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMED5 gene. Published research associates it with highest math class taken. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1967721 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 rs1967721 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 rs1967721 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.
