MIR34AHG · rs17393144

What the study found

Who was studied 1,028,980 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 62,047 African ancestry individuals, 21,843 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.153 higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.19); p = 1 × 10−16.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.22 — in an intron of MIR34AHG.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs17393144

What is rs17393144?

rs17393144 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MIR34AHG gene. Published research associates it with pulse pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17393144 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 rs17393144 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:38689001. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
