near NDUFAF4 · rs1426967137

What the study found

Who was studied 469 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 119,791 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,522 European ancestry cases, 439,837 European ancestry controls, 306 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 58,529 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 2.45 lower (95% confidence interval 2.41-2.5); p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q16.1 — between genes, 20.9 kb from NDUFAF4.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Open wound of hand except finger(s) (PheCode 871.1) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Open wound of hand except finger(s) (PheCode 871.1).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Open wound of hand except finger(s) (PheCode 871.1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1426967137

What is rs1426967137?

rs1426967137 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NDUFAF4 gene. Published research associates it with open wound of hand except finger(s) (phecode 871.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1426967137 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 rs1426967137 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.
