LDL cholesterol levels

near ANKRD31 · rs369330343

What the study found

Who was studied 58,701 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.34 lower (95% confidence interval 1.97-2.71); p = 5 × 10−36.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q13.3 — between genes, 33.4 kb from ANKRD31.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs369330343

What is rs369330343?

rs369330343 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ANKRD31 gene. Published research associates it with ldl cholesterol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs369330343 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 rs369330343 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biomedicines 2022, PMID:35884923. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
