Hip shape mode 4

near LINC01432 · rs1988545

What the study found

Who was studied 38,175 European ancestry individuals, 5,310 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.07 lower (95% confidence interval 0.05-0.09); p = 1 × 10−28.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 56% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20p11.22 — between genes, 113.5 kb from LINC01432.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hip shape mode 4. 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 Hip shape mode 4. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Hip shape mode 4. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1988545

What is rs1988545?

rs1988545 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC01432 gene. Published research associates it with hip shape mode 4. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1988545 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 rs1988545 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2025, PMID:39574169. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
