What each result means

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

rs79333258 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RMST gene. Published research associates it with gestational diabetes mellitus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs79333258 linked to?

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

Does having rs79333258 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.
