Adrenomedullin levels

near IFIH1 · rs12465701

What the study found

Who was studied 21,758 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,173 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.275 lower; p = 8 × 10−18.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q24.2 — between genes, 2.8 kb from IFIH1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12465701

What is rs12465701?

rs12465701 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near IFIH1 gene. Published research associates it with adrenomedullin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12465701 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 rs12465701 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature metabolism 2020, PMID:33067605. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
