What the study found

Who was studied 100,453 Chinese Han ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.59 higher (95% confidence interval 0.39-0.79); p = 5 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 63% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.2 — in an intron of EBF2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure (BMI unadjusted). 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 Systolic blood pressure (BMI unadjusted). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure (BMI unadjusted). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12544694

What is rs12544694?

rs12544694 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EBF2 gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure (bmi unadjusted). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12544694 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 rs12544694 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 rs12544694 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39048560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
