Standard

Waist circumference adjusted for body mass index

NSD1 · rs3088050

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−12, with 8 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 2,518 African American women, 85,730 European ancestry women, 1,773 Filipino ancestry women, 1,030 Indian ancestry women, 1,457 African American men, 54,792 European ancestry men, 7,648 Indian ancestry men, 5,527 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 6,244 African American women, 17,531 European ancestry women, 329 African American men, 19,956 European ancestry men.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.031 cm higher (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.04); p = 1 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q35.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of NSD1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Waist circumference adjusted for body mass index. 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 Waist circumference adjusted for body mass index. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Waist circumference adjusted for body mass index. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
