What the study found

Who was studied up to 237,050 European ancestry individuals, up to 16,935 African ancestry individuals, up to 30,468 South Asian ancestry individuals, up to 8,287 East Asian ancestry individuals, 5,084 Hispanic individuals; replicated in up to 286,268 European and unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0209 higher (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.026); p = 5 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q23.2 — inside SYNE2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7157785

What is rs7157785?

rs7157785 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SGPP1 gene. Published research associates it with triglyceride levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7157785 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 rs7157785 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2017, PMID:29083408. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
