What the study found

Who was studied 8,873 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 109,974 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 4,063 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 54,799 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 397 East Asian ancestry cases, 6,355 East Asian ancestry controls, 71,577 European ancestry cases, 366,195 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0513 higher (95% confidence interval 0.037-0.066); p = 8 × 10−13.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 76% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q35.2 — in an intron of CPEB4.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Atrial fibrillation (PheCode 427.21). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Atrial fibrillation (PheCode 427.21). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Atrial fibrillation (PheCode 427.21). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17694835

What is rs17694835?

rs17694835 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CPEB4 gene. Published research associates it with atrial fibrillation (phecode 427.21). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs17694835 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Atrial Fibrillation. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs17694835 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 rs17694835 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
