Left ventricular ejection fraction

DNAJC18 · rs4835729

What the study found

Who was studied 32,532 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 9 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q31.2 — in an intron of DNAJC18.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Left ventricular ejection fraction. 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 Left ventricular ejection fraction. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Left ventricular ejection fraction. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4835729

What is rs4835729?

rs4835729 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DNAJC18 gene. Published research associates it with left ventricular ejection fraction. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4835729 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 rs4835729 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2023, PMID:37126556. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
