What the study found

Who was studied 166,066 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0498 lower (95% confidence interval 0.041-0.058); p = 8 × 10−31.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — in an intron of LINC01149.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9267098

What is rs9267098?

rs9267098 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HCP5 gene. Published research associates it with platelet 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 rs9267098 linked to?

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

Does having rs9267098 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 rs9267098 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.
