Where this position leads
What the study found
Who was studied 205,327 European ancestry males.
The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.114 lower (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.12); p = 2 × 10−211.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.22 — in an intron of CIROZ.
rs6696575 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CIROZ gene. Published research associates it with male-pattern baldness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
