Serum sclerostin levels

TNFRSF11A · rs2957124

What the study found

Who was studied 33,961 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0573 lower (95% confidence interval 0.042-0.072); p = 6 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q21.33 — in the 3′ untranslated region of TNFRSF11A.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2957124

What is rs2957124?

rs2957124 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TNFRSF11A gene. Published research associates it with serum sclerostin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2957124 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 rs2957124 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Arthritis & rheumatology (Hoboken, N.J.) 2023, PMID:37096546. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
