Descending aorta strain

SRR · rs408067

What the study found

Who was studied 40,028 European or unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0453 lower (95% confidence interval 0.033-0.057); p = 2 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 38% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p13.3 — in a regulatory region of SRR.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs408067

What is rs408067?

rs408067 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SRR gene. Published research associates it with descending aorta strain. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs408067 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 rs408067 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American College of Cardiology 2023, PMID:37019578. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
