What the study found

Who was studied 219,872 British ancestry women.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0349 lower (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.043); p = 6 × 10−16.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.1 — between genes, 23.4 kb from RPL10P2.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Hip circumference adjusted for BMI. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

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

Does having rs858975 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 rs858975 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2021, PMID:34021172. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
