Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 46,904 European ancestry males; replicated in 80,822 European ancestry males.
The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0261 higher; p = 3 × 10−12.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q29 — between genes, 109.9 kb from XXYLT1.
rs7428617 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near XXYLT1 gene. Published research associates it with hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
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.
