What the study found

Who was studied 7,642 European ancestry cases, 172,172 European ancestry controls; replicated in 2,835 European ancestry cases, 107,469 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.26 times the odds of Abdominal aortic aneurysm (95% confidence interval 1.16-1.36); p = 8 × 10−9.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.33 — between genes, 1.7 kb from C20orf181.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Abdominal aortic aneurysm compared to the general population.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Abdominal aortic aneurysm.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Abdominal aortic aneurysm — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs73149487

What is rs73149487?

rs73149487 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABHD16B gene. Published research associates it with abdominal aortic aneurysm. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs73149487 linked to?

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

Does having rs73149487 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 rs73149487 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circulation 2020, PMID:32981348. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
