X-24588 levels

near ANKRD40 · rs4148418

What the study found

Who was studied 6,136 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.13 higher; p = 3 × 10−12.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.33 — between genes, 0 kb from ANKRD40.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to X-24588 levels. 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 X-24588 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to X-24588 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4148418

What is rs4148418?

rs4148418 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ANKRD40 gene. Published research associates it with x-24588 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4148418 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 rs4148418 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35347128. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
