What the study found

Who was studied 1,164,961 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.154 mmHg higher (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.2); p = 6 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 64% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q25.3 — a missense change in AKAP13.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4075254

What is rs4075254?

rs4075254 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AKAP13 gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4075254 linked to?

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

Does having rs4075254 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 rs4075254 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:33230300. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
