What the study found

Who was studied 1,820 Sub-Saharan African ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.207 lower (95% confidence interval 0.14-0.28); p = 1 × 10−8.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10p12.1 — between genes, 12.4 kb from WAC.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Adipsin levels in type 2 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Adipsin levels in type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Adipsin levels in type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs61848529

What is rs61848529?

rs61848529 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near WAC gene. Published research associates it with adipsin levels in type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs61848529 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs61848529 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 rs61848529 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genome medicine 2021, PMID:34620218. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
