What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Height — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2011, PMID:21998595)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Height. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2011, PMID:21998595)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Height compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2011, PMID:21998595)

Questions about rs9470004

What is rs9470004?

rs9470004 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PPARD gene. Published research associates it with height. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9470004 linked to?

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

Does having rs9470004 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 rs9470004 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2011, PMID:21998595. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
