What the study found

Who was studied 148,726 European ancestry cases, 965,732 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0344 higher (95% confidence interval 0.023-0.046); p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q22.3 — between genes, 245.7 kb from RNU6-692P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7559658

What is rs7559658?

rs7559658 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RNU6-692P gene. Published research associates it with 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 rs7559658 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 rs7559658 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 rs7559658 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32541925. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
