What the study found

Who was studied 51,802 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 63,903 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 22,361 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 35,203 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 2,276 East Asian ancestry cases, 4,318 East Asian ancestry controls, 154,958 European ancestry cases, 276,347 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.061 higher (95% confidence interval 0.047-0.075); p = 2 × 10−20.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 83% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p11.22 — in an intron of KLHL42.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diabetes mellitus (PheCode 250) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diabetes mellitus (PheCode 250).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diabetes mellitus (PheCode 250) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7960190

What is rs7960190?

rs7960190 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KLHL42 gene. Published research associates it with diabetes mellitus (phecode 250). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7960190 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 rs7960190 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
