Atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities with ulceration or gangrene (PheCode 440.21)

near NUFIP1P1 · rs557234063

What the study found

Who was studied 1,050 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,229 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 2,865 European ancestry cases, 446,086 European ancestry controls, 353 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,338 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 2.1 lower (95% confidence interval 2.04-2.16); p = 5 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q12 — between genes, 63.6 kb from NUFIP1P1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities with ulceration or gangrene (PheCode 440.21). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities with ulceration or gangrene (PheCode 440.21). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities with ulceration or gangrene (PheCode 440.21). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs557234063

What is rs557234063?

rs557234063 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NUFIP1P1 gene. Published research associates it with atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities with ulceration or gangrene (phecode 440.21). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs557234063 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 rs557234063 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
