Triglycerides in medium HDL (UKB data field 23571)

ALDH1A2 · rs62001736

What the study found

Who was studied 88,329 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.158 higher (95% confidence interval 0.15-0.17); p = 1 × 10−200.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 30% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — inside ALDH1A2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Triglycerides in medium HDL (UKB data field 23571). 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 Triglycerides in medium HDL (UKB data field 23571). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Triglycerides in medium HDL (UKB data field 23571). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62001736

What is rs62001736?

rs62001736 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALDH1A2 gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides in medium hdl (ukb data field 23571). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62001736 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 rs62001736 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2023, PMID:36764567. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
