What the study found

Who was studied 236 Chinese ancestry individuals; replicated in 512 Chinese ancestry individuals, 57 Malay ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.777 higher (95% confidence interval 0.68-0.87); p = 1 × 10−60.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 28% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q22.2 — between genes, 0.7 kb from HP.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Urinary haptoglobin levels in type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Urinary haptoglobin levels in type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Urinary haptoglobin levels in type 2 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs75444904

What is rs75444904?

rs75444904 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HP gene. Published research associates it with urinary haptoglobin levels in type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs75444904 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs75444904 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 rs75444904 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2018, PMID:29572449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
