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.
rs1532625 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CETP gene. Published research associates it with omega-6 fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
CETP carries pharmacogenomic findings for Statins. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.
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.
