Skull bone mineral density

CFAP97D1 · rs34814687

What the study found

Who was studied 38,435 European ancestry individuals, 5,397 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.1 higher; p = 6 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.31 — in the 3′ untranslated region of CFAP97D1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs34814687

What is rs34814687?

rs34814687 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CFAP97D1 gene. Published research associates it with skull bone mineral density. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34814687 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 rs34814687 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2023, PMID:37402774. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
