Electrocardiogram morphology (amplitude at temporal datapoints)

TERF2IP · rs72791317

What the study found

Who was studied 63,706 European and unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.072 higher (95% confidence interval 0.048-0.096); p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.1 — between genes, 33.8 kb from RNA5SP430.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Electrocardiogram morphology (amplitude at temporal datapoints). 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 Electrocardiogram morphology (amplitude at temporal datapoints). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Electrocardiogram morphology (amplitude at temporal datapoints). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs72791317

What is rs72791317?

rs72791317 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TERF2IP gene. Published research associates it with electrocardiogram morphology (amplitude at temporal datapoints). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs72791317 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 rs72791317 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell systems 2020, PMID:32916098. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
