What the study found

Who was studied 170,721 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0303 lower (95% confidence interval 0.023-0.037); p = 3 × 10−17.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 54% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q25.1 — in an intron of NHERF1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs8064299

What is rs8064299?

rs8064299 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC9A3R1 gene. Published research associates it with monocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs8064299 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Monocyte Count, Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs8064299 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 rs8064299 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
