What the study found

Who was studied 83,884 European ancestry individuals, 9,610 African American individuals, 1,382 Hispanic individuals, 750 East Asian ancestry individuals..

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.88 ms lower (95% confidence interval 0.7-1.06); p = 1 × 10−26.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 38% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p22.2 — in an intron of SCN5A.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to QT interval. 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 QT interval. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to QT interval. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12053903

What is rs12053903?

rs12053903 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCN5A gene. Published research associates it with qt interval. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12053903 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to QT Interval and Drug-Induced Long QT. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs12053903 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 rs12053903 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circulation. Genomic and precision medicine 2018, PMID:29874175. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
