Platelet side fluorescence distribution width

HABP4 · rs55665228

What the study found

Who was studied 29,552 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0775 SD units lower (95% confidence interval 0.057-0.098); p = 3 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 18% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q22.32 — in an intron of HABP4.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Platelet side fluorescence distribution width. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Platelet side fluorescence distribution width. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Platelet side fluorescence distribution width. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs55665228

What is rs55665228?

rs55665228 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HABP4 gene. Published research associates it with platelet side fluorescence distribution width. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55665228 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 rs55665228 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37596262. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
