What the study found

Who was studied 63,607 European ancestry drinkers, 10,193 African American or Afro-Caribbean drinkers, 2,441 Asian ancestry drinkers, 5,084 Hispanic or Latin American drinkers, 27,492 European ancestry non-drinkers, 11,223 African American or Afro-Caribbean non-drinkers, 9,924 Asian ancestry non-drinkers, 3,387 Hispanic or Latin American non-drinkers; replicated in 238,058 European ancestry drinkers, 2,280 African American drinkers, 54,081 Asian ancestry drinkers, 6,448 Hispanic drinkers, 43,318 European ancestry non-drinkers, 2,761 African American non-drinkers, 86,943 Asian ancestry non-drinkers, 6,923 Hispanic non-drinkers.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 1 × 10−19.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 78% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p13.2 — in an intron of ST7L.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diastolic blood pressure x alcohol consumption interaction (2df test) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diastolic blood pressure x alcohol consumption interaction (2df test).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diastolic blood pressure x alcohol consumption interaction (2df test) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs12118370

What is rs12118370?

rs12118370 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ST7L gene. Published research associates it with diastolic blood pressure x alcohol consumption interaction (2df test). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12118370 linked to?

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

Does having rs12118370 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 rs12118370 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS One 2018, PMID:29912962. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
