What the study found

Who was studied 340,159 European ancestry individuals, 145,505 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0228 lower (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.03); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q12.2 — between genes, 13.2 kb from RNU6-70P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs138110118

What is rs138110118?

rs138110118 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RNU6-70P gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs138110118 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 rs138110118 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 rs138110118 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
