What the study found

Who was studied 19,721 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.19 times the odds of Cerebral small vessel disease (95% confidence interval 1.12-1.26); p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 58% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.2 — inside C16orf95.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Cerebral small vessel disease — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Cerebral small vessel disease.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Cerebral small vessel disease compared to the general population.

Questions about rs12149643

What is rs12149643?

rs12149643 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C16orf95 gene. Published research associates it with cerebral small vessel disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12149643 linked to?

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

Does having rs12149643 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 rs12149643 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Brain : a journal of neurology 2022, PMID:35511193. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
