Who was studied 212,199 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0344 lower (95% confidence interval 0.028-0.041); p = 3 × 10−22.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p23.1 — in an intron of DEFB136.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of QRS duration — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with QRS duration.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of QRS duration compared to the general population.

Questions about rs35283519
What is rs35283519?
rs35283519 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DEFB136 gene. Published research associates it with qrs duration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs35283519 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cardiac Conduction Intervals (PR Interval and QRS Duration). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs35283519 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 rs35283519 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36050321. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
