Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 4,435 East Asian ancestry individuals, 11,340 South Asian ancestry individuals, 120,241 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0267 higher (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.034); p = 1 × 10⁻¹¹.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 40% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q21.3 — in an intron of AFF1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs11946481

What is rs11946481?

rs11946481 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AFF1 gene. Published research associates it with free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small vldl. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11946481 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 rs11946481 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2024, PMID:38448586. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
