What the study found

Who was studied 38,199 European ancestry adults; replicated in 54,550 European ancestry adults, 5,062 children.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.153 lower (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.19); p = 1 × 10−12.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.2 — in an intron of LTBP4.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Lung function (FEV1/FVC). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Lung function (FEV1/FVC). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Lung function (FEV1/FVC). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs113473882

What is rs113473882?

rs113473882 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LTBP4 gene. Published research associates it with lung function (fev1/fvc). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs113473882 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Pulmonary Function (Lung Capacity). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs113473882 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 rs113473882 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:26635082. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
