What the study found

Who was studied 56,505 European ancestry individuals, 9,870 African American individuals, 2,491 Asian ancestry individuals, 2,528 Hispanic individuals; replicated in 107,548 European ancestry individuals, 2,028 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 41,240 Asian ancestry individuals, 6,622 Hispanic individuals, 1,984 Brazilian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.012 lower; p = 9 × 10−24.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.31 — in an intron of SBNO1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7298909

What is rs7298909?

rs7298909 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SBNO1 gene. Published research associates it with hdl cholesterol levels in current drinkers. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7298909 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 rs7298909 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of epidemiology 2019, PMID:30698716. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
