Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
Strength of the evidence
1 / 4
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−16, with 2 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
How this is scored
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 32,285 East Asian ancestry individuals, 173,082 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 8,478 Chinese ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0333 higher (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.041); p = 8 × 10−17.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.3 — between genes, 0.1 kb from MDH1P2.

The share of all copies of this position that are each version. Source: the population studies published in dbSNP (US NCBI); each row names its study. The ancestry rows are gnomAD's own groups (via Ensembl), as the survey defines them, not races.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to LDL cholesterol levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/COne copy of the version the research linked to LDL cholesterol levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to LDL cholesterol levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
