What the study found

Who was studied 341,805 European ancestry individuals, 6,006 African ancestry individuals, 7,316 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0268 higher (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.033); p = 3 × 10−16.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q24.2 — in an intron of RGS6.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs34473506

What is rs34473506?

rs34473506 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RGS6 gene. Published research associates it with c-reactive protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs34473506 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to C-Reactive Protein Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs34473506 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 rs34473506 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
