What the study found

Who was studied 55,114 European ancestry cases, 482,295 European ancestry controls, 8,180 Japanese ancestry cases, 28,612 Japanese ancestry controls, 1,307 African American ancestry cases, 7,660 African American ancestry controls, 845 Hispanic cases, 4,177 Hispanic controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.55 times the odds of Atrial fibrillation (95% confidence interval 1.36-1.77); p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.22 — a missense change in UBE4B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Atrial fibrillation. 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 Atrial fibrillation. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Atrial fibrillation. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs187585530

What is rs187585530?

rs187585530 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UBE4B gene. Published research associates it with atrial fibrillation. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs187585530 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 rs187585530 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 rs187585530 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:29892015. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
