ICD10 I10: Essential (primary) hypertension

near FGF5 · rs2903657

What the study found

Who was studied 12,298 Chinese ancestry cases, 69,440 Chinese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 0.90 times the odds of ICD10 I10: Essential (primary) hypertension (95% confidence interval 0.875-0.932); p = 4 × 10−10.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q21.21 — between genes, 24.9 kb from FGF5.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to ICD10 I10: Essential (primary) hypertension. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to ICD10 I10: Essential (primary) hypertension. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to ICD10 I10: Essential (primary) hypertension. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2903657

What is rs2903657?

rs2903657 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FGF5 gene. Published research associates it with icd10 i10: essential (primary) hypertension. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2903657 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 rs2903657 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell genomics 2023, PMID:37601966. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
