Aortic Valve Disease 2

Assembled from catalogue records November 6, 2026

Aortic Valve Disease 2, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 28 positions from 1 study. Assembled by code from the GWAS Catalog's records and kept current as positions arrive; every figure is the studies' own.

What this condition connects to

Prevalence
Not taken from these records, which report study sizes rather than how common the condition is.
Inheritance
Many positions, each with a small effect: 28 positions across 1 study, the pattern of a polygenic condition. The records do not give a heritability, and this page does not supply one.

This is the record of what genome-wide association studies have found for Aortic Valve Disease 2 (the GWAS Catalog's "Aortic valve disease 2"): 28 positions reported by 1 study. The page is put together by code from the catalogue's records and the studies' own listings, and it is rebuilt whenever the records change, so it always reflects them as they stand.

The studies behind the positions

A study. The 28 positions on this page from it: rs1060503154 (TBX5), rs1196005021 (SMAD6), rs1208004863 (TBX5), rs1325349483 (SMAD6), rs1424182433 (SMAD6), rs1555225344 (TBX5), rs1565923835 (TBX5), rs1565927747 (TBX5), and 20 more.

Positions and mapped genes

The catalogue maps the 28 positions to 2 genes: TBX5, SMAD6. That mapping says where a position sits, in a gene or beside one — not what it does. For what each study measured, follow its citation above.

What these records can and cannot tell you

Association records say which positions differ, on average, between people with Aortic Valve Disease 2 and people without. They do not describe the condition, say how common it is, or tell anyone what to do, so this page does not either. For a single position, open its variant page: it gives that study's record in fixed sentences, with ClinVar's where there is one.

Clinical detail

Genotype and diagnosis

Aortic Valve Disease 2 is diagnosed by a clinician — not from a genotype. None of the 28 variants on this page is used by any guideline to predict, screen for or diagnose it.

Everything here comes from population-level association records, put together by code. Those records compare groups of people; they do not examine anyone, and they give no guidance on care. For symptoms, testing or treatment, ask a clinician.

Questions about Aortic Valve Disease 2

What is Aortic Valve Disease 2?

In the GWAS Catalog, Aortic Valve Disease 2 is filed as "Aortic valve disease 2". Rather than define it, this page lists the genome-wide findings: 28 positions from 1 study, each with its study's sample and citation.

Is Aortic Valve Disease 2 genetic?

Genome-wide studies have reported 28 associated positions. Each common variant has a small effect, and an association in a population is not a cause in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Aortic Valve Disease 2 on this page?

The positions lie in or near 2 genes: TBX5, SMAD6. A mapped gene is the catalogue's location for a position, not a mechanism.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Aortic Valve Disease 2?

No. They are population-level findings of small effect. Aortic Valve Disease 2 is diagnosed by a clinician, and no guideline uses a genotype to predict it.
