Descending thoracic aortic diameter

ADAMTS7 · rs116901435

What the study found

Who was studied 34,532 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0343 lower (95% confidence interval 0.023-0.046); p = 7 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 57% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q25.1 — in an intron of ADAMTS7.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs116901435

What is rs116901435?

rs116901435 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADAMTS7 gene. Published research associates it with descending thoracic aortic diameter. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs116901435 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 rs116901435 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:34837083. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
