Femoral neck bone mineral density

KLHDC5 · rs7953528

Where this position leads

Condition: Femoral Neck Bone Mineral Density

What the study found

Who was studied Up to 32,961 European and East Asian ancestry individuals; replicated in Up to 50,933 European and East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.05 higher; p = 2 × 10⁻¹².

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 18% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p11.22 — between genes, 57.8 kb from RN7SKP15.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Femoral neck bone mineral density. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7953528

What is rs7953528?

rs7953528 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KLHDC5 gene. Published research associates it with femoral neck 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 rs7953528 linked to?

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

Does having rs7953528 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 rs7953528 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2012, PMID:22504420. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
