Predicted visceral adipose tissue

near TIPARP-AS1 · rs9843340

What the study found

Who was studied 325,153 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0221 lower (95% confidence interval 0.015-0.029); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q25.31 — between genes, 35.1 kb from TIPARP-AS1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9843340

What is rs9843340?

rs9843340 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TIPARP-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with predicted visceral adipose tissue. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9843340 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 rs9843340 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature medicine 2019, PMID:31501611. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
