Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 228,926 European ancestry cases, 1,611,415 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0233 lower (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.03); p = 1 × 10⁻¹⁰.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 66% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p11.12 — between genes, 16.2 kb from LINC02750.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Atrial fibrillation compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Atrial fibrillation.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Atrial fibrillation — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs4881717

What is rs4881717?

rs4881717 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02750 gene. Published research associates it with atrial fibrillation. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4881717 linked to?

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

Does having rs4881717 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 rs4881717 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40645996. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
