KCTD20 · rs79927326

What the study found

Who was studied 72,816 Chinese ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0931 higher (95% confidence interval 0.076-0.11); p = 1 × 10−26.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 14% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.31 — in an intron of KCTD20.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count during first trimester of pregnancy. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count during first trimester of pregnancy. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Platelet count during first trimester of pregnancy. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs79927326

What is rs79927326?

rs79927326 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCTD20 gene. Published research associates it with platelet count during first trimester of pregnancy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs79927326 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 rs79927326 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Blood 2024, PMID:38064665. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
