COVID-19 with respiratory failure

LZTFL1 · rs35731912

What the study found

Who was studied 3,255 European ancestry cases, 12,488 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.78 times the odds of COVID-19 with respiratory failure (95% confidence interval 1.723415366207033-1.847238830291911); p = 2 × 10−21.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — in an intron of LZTFL1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to COVID-19 with respiratory failure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to COVID-19 with respiratory failure. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to COVID-19 with respiratory failure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs35731912

What is rs35731912?

rs35731912 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LZTFL1 gene. Published research associates it with covid-19 with respiratory failure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35731912 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 rs35731912 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2022, PMID:35848942. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
