Left atrial emptying fraction

MYH6 · rs440466

What the study found

Who was studied 35,049 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.056 higher (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.072); p = 7 × 10−14.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 62% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q11.2 — in an intron of MYH6.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs440466

What is rs440466?

rs440466 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MYH6 gene. Published research associates it with left atrial emptying fraction. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs440466 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 rs440466 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:38773065. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
