Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 34,532 European ancestry individuals, 5,156 individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.413 higher; p = 1 × 10−8.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.12 — in an intron of MAL2-AS1.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Descending thoracic aortic diameter. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs574214679
What is rs574214679?
rs574214679 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MAL2-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with descending thoracic aortic diameter. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs574214679 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 rs574214679 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:34837083. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
