Left ventricular global longitudinal strain

near SLC35F1 · rs1743241

What the study found

Who was studied 35,052 European or unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.157 higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.2); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 44% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q22.31 — between genes, 41.1 kb from SLC35F1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1743241

What is rs1743241?

rs1743241 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SLC35F1 gene. Published research associates it with left ventricular global longitudinal strain. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1743241 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 rs1743241 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39966646. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
