Triglyceride levels

near RPL30P9 · rs9644568

What the study found

Who was studied 38,000 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.177 lower (95% confidence interval 0.15-0.2); p = 5 × 10−50.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.3 — between genes, 42.3 kb from RPL30P9.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9644568

What is rs9644568?

rs9644568 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RPL30P9 gene. Published research associates it with triglyceride levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9644568 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 rs9644568 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39414775. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
