Kidney sinus volume

near FST · rs6875756

What the study found

Who was studied 38,816 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.1 higher (95% confidence interval 0.08-0.12); p = 5 × 10−35.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 80% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q11.2 — between genes, 118.9 kb from FST.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Kidney sinus volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Kidney sinus volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Kidney sinus volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs6875756

What is rs6875756?

rs6875756 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FST gene. Published research associates it with kidney sinus volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6875756 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 rs6875756 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Kidney international 2026, PMID:41077127. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
