Where this position leads

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Migraine without aura — no copies of the reported risk allele.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Migraine without aura.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Migraine without aura compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7775721

What is rs7775721?

rs7775721 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FHL5 gene. Published research associates it with migraine without aura. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7775721 linked to?

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

Does having rs7775721 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 rs7775721 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27322543. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
