Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in small LDL

CEACAM22P · rs73048316

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−7, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 115,082 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0568 lower (95% confidence interval 0.036-0.077); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 96% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.31 — in an intron of CEACAM22P.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in small LDL. 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 Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in small LDL. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in small LDL. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs73048316

What is rs73048316?

rs73048316 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CEACAM22P gene. Published research associates it with free cholesterol to total lipids ratio in small ldl. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs73048316 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 rs73048316 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS biology 2022, PMID:35213538. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
