What the study found

Who was studied 28,283 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 22,054 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.52 times the odds of Urate levels (95% confidence interval 1.35-1.69); p = 4 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 73% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p16.1 — in an intron of SLC2A9.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs13129697

What is rs13129697?

rs13129697 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC2A9 gene. Published research associates it with urate levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13129697 linked to?

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

What do people read about alongside rs13129697?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (2 papers), kidneys (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs13129697 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 rs13129697 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circ Cardiovasc Genet 2010, PMID:20884846. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
