Who was studied 119,332 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 57,990 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 6,421 East Asian ancestry individuals, 425,743 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0216 higher (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.027); p = 1 × 10−13.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 74% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20p11.23 — in an intron of SLC24A3.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to diastolic blood pressure (DBP, mean, inv-normal transformed). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to diastolic blood pressure (DBP, mean, inv-normal transformed). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to diastolic blood pressure (DBP, mean, inv-normal transformed). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs6046140
What is rs6046140?
rs6046140 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC24A3 gene. Published research associates it with diastolic blood pressure (dbp, mean, inv-normal transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs6046140 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Pressure. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs6046140 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 rs6046140 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.
