Urine red blood cell levels

HLCS · rs56252975

What the study found

Who was studied 1,935 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.307 higher; p = 4 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 21, band 21q22.13 — in an intron of HLCS.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Urine red blood cell levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Urine red blood cell levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Urine red blood cell levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs56252975

What is rs56252975?

rs56252975 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HLCS gene. Published research associates it with urine red blood cell levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs56252975 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 rs56252975 come from?

GWAS Catalog, GigaScience 2024, PMID:38626723. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
