Who was studied 350,474 European ancestry individuals, 148,623 East Asian ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0318 higher (95% confidence interval 0.027-0.037); p = 2 × 10−40.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.2 — in an intron of ZFPM1.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Platelet count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs62048971 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZFPM1 gene. Published research associates it with platelet count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs62048971 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs62048971 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 rs62048971 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
