What the study found

Who was studied 426,824 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0346 lower (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.043); p = 1 × 10−14.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 95% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q12.1 — between genes, 38 kb from LINC02127.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Heel bone mineral density. 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 Heel bone mineral density. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Heel bone mineral density. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs79028154

What is rs79028154?

rs79028154 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC101927334 gene. Published research associates it with heel bone mineral density. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs79028154 linked to?

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

Does having rs79028154 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 rs79028154 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30598549. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
