What the study found

Who was studied 2,483 East Asian ancestry individuals, 1,885 European ancestry individuals, 11,146 individuals; replicated in 10,074 European ancestry individuals, 2,870 European and other ancestry individuals, 21,434 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.09 higher (95% confidence interval 0.07-0.12); p = 5 × 10−15.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 88% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q21.1 — in an intron of LNCAROD.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Bone properties (heel). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Bone properties (heel). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Bone properties (heel). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs7902708

What is rs7902708?

rs7902708 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MBL2 gene. Published research associates it with bone properties (heel). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7902708 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 rs7902708 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2014, PMID:24430505. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
