Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z29_S1)

near SPEG · rs13386459

What the study found

Who was studied 47,740 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0382 lower (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.05); p = 3 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q35 — between genes, 0.5 kb from SPEG.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z29_S1). 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 Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z29_S1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z29_S1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs13386459

What is rs13386459?

rs13386459 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SPEG gene. Published research associates it with cardiac mri latent phenotype (z29_s1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs13386459 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 rs13386459 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42373625. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
