Who was studied up to 449,889 European ancestry individuals, up to 29,398 South Asian ancestry individuals, up to 27,610 African American individuals, up to 8,839 East Asian individuals, up to 10,772 Hispanic ancestry individuals; replicated in up to 196,766 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0276 higher (95% confidence interval 0.021-0.035); p = 4 × 10−14.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p13.3 — a missense change in SYPL2.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs62623713
What is rs62623713?
rs62623713 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SYPL2 gene. Published research associates it with body mass index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs62623713 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Childhood Body Mass Index. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs62623713 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 rs62623713 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2018, PMID:29273807. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
