Hemoglobin A1c levels

CBFA2T3 · rs62045796

What the study found

Who was studied 38,000 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.255 lower (95% confidence interval 0.21-0.3); p = 2 × 10−28.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.3 — in an intron of CBFA2T3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hemoglobin A1c levels. 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 Hemoglobin A1c levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Hemoglobin A1c levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62045796

What is rs62045796?

rs62045796 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CBFA2T3 gene. Published research associates it with hemoglobin a1c levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62045796 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 rs62045796 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39414775. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
