What the study found

Who was studied 1,029 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 1,202 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.102 higher; p = 4 × 10−24.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q32.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of ETFDH.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs8396

What is rs8396?

rs8396 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ETFDH gene. Published research associates it with metabolite levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs8396 linked to?

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

What do people read about alongside rs8396?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include exercise and muscle (2 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs8396 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 rs8396 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2009, PMID:20037589. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
