What the study found

Who was studied at least 757,601 European ancestry individuals (MTAG boosted by 455,258 Alzheimer's disease samples).

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.017 higher (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.021); p = 1 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.12 — between genes, 20.9 kb from MIR548AZ.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2470004

What is rs2470004?

rs2470004 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MIR548AZ gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2470004 linked to?

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

Does having rs2470004 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 rs2470004 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39537608. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
