What the study found

Who was studied 1,164,961 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.159 mmHg lower (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.2); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 55% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q22.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of BMPR1B.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Brachydactyly, Acromesomelic dysplasia 3, Type A2 brachydactyly; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 4 submitters), last evaluated 2026-01-26. ClinVar record 350131 NM_001203.3(BMPR1B):c.*141C>T

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1434536

What is rs1434536?

rs1434536 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BMPR1B 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 rs1434536 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 rs1434536 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 rs1434536 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:33230300. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
