Standard

High density lipoprotein cholesterol levels

APOC1 · rs66626994

Strength of the evidence

3 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−222, with 4 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 6,949 Korean ancestry individuals; replicated in 6,000 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0396 lower (95% confidence interval 0.027-0.053); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.32 — between genes, 1 kb from APOC1P1.

The share of all copies of this position that are each version. Source: the population studies published in dbSNP (US NCBI); each row names its study. The ancestry rows are gnomAD's own groups (via Ensembl), as the survey defines them, not races.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to High density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. 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 High density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to High density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
