Adiposity (multivariate analysis)

C17orf67 · rs4793832

What the study found

Who was studied 393,268 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0157 higher (95% confidence interval 0.01-0.021); p = 5 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q22 — in an intron of C17orf67.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Adiposity (multivariate analysis). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Adiposity (multivariate analysis). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Adiposity (multivariate analysis). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs4793832

What is rs4793832?

rs4793832 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C17orf67 gene. Published research associates it with adiposity (multivariate analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4793832 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 rs4793832 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40796553. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
