What the study found

Who was studied 9,482 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 109,200 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 4,250 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 54,584 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 416 East Asian ancestry cases, 6,327 East Asian ancestry controls, 74,152 European ancestry cases, 363,596 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.118 higher (95% confidence interval 0.098-0.138); p = 2 × 10−38.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 86% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.3 — in an intron of ATXN1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Atrial fibrillation and flutter (PheCode 427.2) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Atrial fibrillation and flutter (PheCode 427.2).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Atrial fibrillation and flutter (PheCode 427.2) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs113755256

What is rs113755256?

rs113755256 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ATXN1 gene. Published research associates it with atrial fibrillation and flutter (phecode 427.2). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs113755256 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Atrial Fibrillation. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs113755256 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 rs113755256 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
