Who was studied 526,001 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.397 lower (95% confidence interval 0.27-0.52); p = 1 × 10−9.
Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.13 — in an intron of HECTD4.
What each result means
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Diastolic blood pressure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Diastolic blood pressure. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Diastolic blood pressure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs7296970 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HECTD4 gene. Published research associates it with diastolic blood 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 rs7296970 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 rs7296970 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 rs7296970 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Investigative ophthalmology & visual science 2022, PMID:35762941. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
