Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Waist-hip ratio — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Waist-hip ratio.
T/T
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Waist-hip ratio compared to the general population.

Papers in Europe PMC whose title or abstract names both this rsID and that subject. A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together — it is not a claim that this position explains the subject.
Questions about rs6931262
What is rs6931262?
rs6931262 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RREB1 gene. Published research associates it with waist-hip ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What do people read about alongside rs6931262?
Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include cholesterol and blood fats (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.
Does having rs6931262 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 rs6931262 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2013, PMID:23966867. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
