What the study found

Who was studied 52,253 European ancestry indiviudals; replicated in 32,917 European ancestry individuals, 6,070 African American individuals, 849 Hispanic individuals, 8,637 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 21.1 ml lower (95% confidence interval 15.25-27.00); p = 2 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 37% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p16.1 — in an intron of EFEMP1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Lung function (forced vital capacity). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Lung function (forced vital capacity). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Lung function (forced vital capacity). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1430193

What is rs1430193?

rs1430193 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EFEMP1 gene. Published research associates it with lung function (forced vital capacity). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1430193 linked to?

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

Does having rs1430193 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 rs1430193 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:24929828. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
