Who was studied 3,545 African American individuals, 12,965 European ancestry women, 8,625 European ancestry men.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.061 higher (95% confidence interval 0.041-0.081); p = 8 × 10−10.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.2 — in an intron of NFATC2.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Sitting height ratio. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Sitting height ratio. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Sitting height ratio. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs228836
What is rs228836?
rs228836 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NFATC2 gene. Published research associates it with sitting height 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 rs228836 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Height. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs228836 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 rs228836 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2015, PMID:25865494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
