What the study found

Who was studied 60,620 European ancestry cases, 970,216 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.10 times the odds of Atrial fibrillation (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.12); p = 3 × 10−17.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 89% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 21, band 21q22.12 — in an intron of LINC01426.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2834618

What is rs2834618?

rs2834618 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01426 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 rs2834618 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.

What do people read about alongside rs2834618?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include heart and circulation (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 rs2834618 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 rs2834618 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30061737. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
