Who was studied 757,601 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 249,262 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.153 higher (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.19); p = 4 × 10−14.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 74% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q21.22 — in an intron of LIN54.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pulse pressure — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pulse pressure.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pulse pressure compared to the general population.
rs6823199 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LIN54 gene. Published research associates it with pulse pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs6823199 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 rs6823199 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 rs6823199 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30224653. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
