Urinary sodium excretion

MIR128-2 · rs1513481

What the study found

Who was studied 446,237 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 7,612 African ancestry individuals, 10,095 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.00934 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0067-0.012); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 69% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p22.3 — in an intron of ARPP21.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Urinary sodium excretion. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Urinary sodium excretion. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Urinary sodium excretion. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1513481

What is rs1513481?

rs1513481 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MIR128-2 gene. Published research associates it with urinary sodium excretion. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1513481 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 rs1513481 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:31409800. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
