What the study found

Who was studied 17,861 Japanese ancestry cases, 194,592 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 0.91 times the odds of Arrhythmia (95% confidence interval 0.891313612-0.936051587); p = 4 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 29% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q31.2 — in an intron of CAV1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs729949

What is rs729949?

rs729949 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CAV1 gene. Published research associates it with arrhythmia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs729949 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Arrhythmia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs729949 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 rs729949 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32514122. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
