Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 133,413 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 42,166 European ancestry individuals, up to 16,471 African ancestry individuals, up to 42,296 Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.006 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0038-0.0082); p = 3 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p25.1 — in an intron of WNT7A.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). 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 Glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6795744

What is rs6795744?

rs6795744 is a single position in the genome, in or near the WNT7A gene. Published research associates it with glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6795744 linked to?

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

Does having rs6795744 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 rs6795744 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2016, PMID:26831199. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
