Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 26 Vis (founder/genetic isolate) cases, 30 Korculan (founder/genetic isolate) cases, 20 Split cases, 934 Vis (founder/genetic isolate) controls, 2,668 Korculan (founder/genetic isolate) controls, 946 Split controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.12 times the odds of Hepatitis (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.15); p = 8 × 10⁻¹⁰.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p22.1 — in an intron of ARHGAP29-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hepatitis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Hepatitis. That is a smaller link than two copies.

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Hepatitis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs34447953

What is rs34447953?

rs34447953 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARHGAP29-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with hepatitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs34447953 linked to?

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

Does having rs34447953 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 rs34447953 come from?

GWAS Catalog, International journal of molecular sciences 2023, PMID:37108169. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
