Who was studied 276 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,333 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 769 European ancestry cases, 449,707 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 3.01 lower (95% confidence interval 2.98-3.04); 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 6q27 — between genes, 101.4 kb from C6orf118.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Acute pericarditis (PheCode 420.21) compared to the general population.
A/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Acute pericarditis (PheCode 420.21).
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Acute pericarditis (PheCode 420.21) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs144211882
What is rs144211882?
rs144211882 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near C6orf118 gene. Published research associates it with acute pericarditis (phecode 420.21). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs144211882 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Acute Pericarditis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs144211882 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 rs144211882 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.
