Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine)

near PIK3R1 · rs17256228

What the study found

Who was studied 1,004,040 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 417,288 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0054 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0046-0.0062); p = 2 × 10−41.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 11% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q13.1 — between genes, 143.9 kb from PIK3R1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs17256228

What is rs17256228?

rs17256228 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near PIK3R1 gene. Published research associates it with estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17256228 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 rs17256228 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34272381. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
