What the study found

Who was studied 927 Saudi Arabian ancestry cases, 3,159 Saudi Arabian ancestry controls; replicated in 317 Saudi Arabian ancestry cases, 1,098 Saudi Arabian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.30 times the odds of Hypertriglyceridemia; p = 1 × 10−6.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.13 — in an intron of TRIB1AL.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6982502

What is rs6982502?

rs6982502 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TRIB1 gene. Published research associates it with hypertriglyceridemia. 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 rs6982502?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include heart and circulation (3 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs6982502 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 rs6982502 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Clin Genet 2016, PMID:27599772. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
