A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diastolic blood pressure — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2011, PMID:21909115)
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diastolic blood pressure. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2011, PMID:21909115)
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diastolic blood pressure compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2011, PMID:21909115)

Questions about rs1173771
What is rs1173771?
rs1173771 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C5orf23 gene. Published research associates it with diastolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1173771 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Pressure. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs1173771 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 rs1173771 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature 2011, PMID:21909115. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
