What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Educational attainment (years of education) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2016, PMID:27225129)

A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Educational attainment (years of education). (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2016, PMID:27225129)

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Educational attainment (years of education) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2016, PMID:27225129)

Questions about rs71326918

What is rs71326918?

rs71326918 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SEMA3F gene. Published research associates it with educational attainment (years of education). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs71326918 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 rs71326918 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2016, PMID:27225129. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
