What the study found

Who was studied 251,740 European ancestry individuals, 139,705 East Asian ancestry individuals, 40,737 South Asian ancestry individuals, 27,417 Hispanic individuals, 30,167 African American individuals, 2,426 Zulu ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.05 times the odds of Type 2 diabetes (95% confidence interval 1.04-1.07); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.3 — between genes, 19.6 kb from LPL.

What each result means

A/A 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.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7819706

What is rs7819706?

rs7819706 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LPL 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 rs7819706 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 rs7819706 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 rs7819706 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35551307. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
