What the study found

Who was studied 38,732 European ancestry cases, 276,936 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0551 higher (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.071); p = 3 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 59% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.21 — between genes, 33.1 kb from KRT18P51.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Chronic lung diseases including COPD, Emphysema and Bronchitis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Chronic lung diseases including COPD, Emphysema and Bronchitis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Chronic lung diseases including COPD, Emphysema and Bronchitis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs13148031

What is rs13148031?

rs13148031 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KRT18P51 gene. Published research associates it with chronic lung diseases including copd, emphysema and bronchitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13148031 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs13148031 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 rs13148031 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
