What the study found

Who was studied 88,192 cases, 162,544 controls; replicated in 34,541 cases, 261,984 controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0439 lower (95% confidence interval 0.033-0.055); p = 6 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.1 — in an intron of CFDP1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4888378

What is rs4888378?

rs4888378 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CFDP1 gene. Published research associates it with coronary artery disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4888378 linked to?

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

Does having rs4888378 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 rs4888378 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circ Res 2017, PMID:29212778. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
