Condition: Peripheral Artery Disease
What the study found
Who was studied 7,404 Finnish ancestry cases, 205,693 Finnish ancestry controls, 7,404 non-Scandinavian ancestry cases, 205,693 non-Scandinavian ancestry controls, 7,404 British ancestry cases, 205,693 British ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.15 times the odds of Peripheral artery disease in ever smokers (95% confidence interval 1.11-1.2); p = 1 × 10−13.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 46% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p21.3 — in an intron of CDKN2B-AS1.
rs10757272 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CDKN2B-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with peripheral artery disease in ever smokers. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Peripheral Artery Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
