What the study found

Who was studied 31,904 European ancestry cases, 172,474 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0709 higher (95% confidence interval 0.047-0.095); p = 6 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p32.2 — in an intron of PLPP3.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Medication use (calcium channel blockers) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Medication use (calcium channel blockers).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Medication use (calcium channel blockers) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs61772626

What is rs61772626?

rs61772626 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PPAP2B gene. Published research associates it with medication use (calcium channel blockers). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs61772626 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Medication Use as a Genetic Trait. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs61772626 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 rs61772626 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2019, PMID:31015401. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
