What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Body mass index — 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 Body mass index.
T/T
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Body mass index compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7189122
What is rs7189122?
rs7189122 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NA gene. Published research associates it with body mass index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs7189122 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 rs7189122 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2018, PMID:30239722. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
