Plasma X-17654 levels in chronic kidney disease

PECR · rs7557590

What the study found

Who was studied 4,872 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.345 higher (95% confidence interval 0.3-0.39); p = 1 × 10−45.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 9% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q35 — in an intron of PECR.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Plasma X-17654 levels in chronic kidney disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Plasma X-17654 levels in chronic kidney disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Plasma X-17654 levels in chronic kidney disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7557590

What is rs7557590?

rs7557590 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PECR gene. Published research associates it with plasma x-17654 levels in chronic kidney disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7557590 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 rs7557590 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:37277652. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
