What the study found

Who was studied 381,152 European female individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0141 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0098-0.0184); p = 6 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 23% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p13.2 — in an intron of INKA2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2076586

What is rs2076586?

rs2076586 is a single position in the genome, in or near the INKA2 gene. Published research associates it with waist-hip ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2076586 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Waist-to-Hip Ratio (Body Fat Distribution). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2076586 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 rs2076586 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2019, PMID:30239722. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
