What is rs7684221?

rs7684221 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LCORL gene. Published research associates it with waist circumference adjusted for bmi (joint analysis main effects and smoking interaction). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7684221 linked to?

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

Does having rs7684221 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 rs7684221 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2017, PMID:28443625. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
