Urinary metabolite levels in chronic kidney disease

ACOT4 · rs7159760

What the study found

Who was studied 1,221 cases; replicated in 406 cases.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.296 lower (95% confidence interval 0.24-0.35); p = 2 × 10−25.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q24.3 — between genes, 2.4 kb from ACOT4.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Urinary metabolite levels in chronic kidney disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Urinary metabolite levels in chronic kidney disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Urinary metabolite levels in chronic kidney disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs7159760

What is rs7159760?

rs7159760 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ACOT4 gene. Published research associates it with urinary metabolite levels in chronic kidney disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7159760 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 rs7159760 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:31959995. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
