Mean platelet volume during the postpartum period

near LINC02577 · rs342301

What the study found

Who was studied 55,914 Chinese ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.243 higher (95% confidence interval 0.21-0.28); p = 3 × 10−48.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 26% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q22.3 — between genes, 38 kb from LINC02577.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume during the postpartum period. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume during the postpartum period. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume during the postpartum period. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs342301

What is rs342301?

rs342301 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02577 gene. Published research associates it with mean platelet volume during the postpartum period. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs342301 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 rs342301 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Blood 2024, PMID:38064665. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
