Where this position leads
Condition: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
What the study found
Who was studied 394,626 European ancestry individuals.
The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0383 higher (95% confidence interval 0.028-0.049); p = 3 × 10−15.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 59% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.2 — in an intron of CMIP.
rs6564889 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CMIP gene. Published research associates it with hypertension. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
