What the study found

Who was studied 452,633 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 541,333 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0082 higher (95% confidence interval 0.006-0.0104); p = 1 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q12.1 — in an intron of NOL4.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs34728579

What is rs34728579?

rs34728579 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NOL4 gene. Published research associates it with daytime nap. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs34728579 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Sleep and Circadian Rhythm. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs34728579 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 rs34728579 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:33568662. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
