What the study found

Who was studied 455,180 Hispanic or Latin American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0154 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.02); p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 21, band 21q21.3 — in an intron of APP.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Height. 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 Height. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Height. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2830031

What is rs2830031?

rs2830031 is a single position in the genome, in or near the APP gene. Published research associates it with height. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2830031 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 rs2830031 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 rs2830031 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2022, PMID:36224396. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
