Solid lines are connections this site curates. Dashed lines mean the two ends share a research paper — worth knowing, and not a claim that one explains the other.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of QT interval — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with QT interval.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of QT interval compared to the general population.

Questions about rs174583

What is rs174583?

rs174583 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FADS2 gene. Published research associates it with qt interval. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs174583 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to QT Interval and Drug-Induced Long QT. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

What do people read about alongside rs174583?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (3 papers), cholesterol and blood fats (3 papers), bones and fractures (1 papers), exercise and muscle (1 papers), brain and memory (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs174583 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 rs174583 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:24952745. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
