What the study found

Who was studied 11,659 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 96,915 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 5,978 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 47,934 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 294 East Asian ancestry cases, 6,163 East Asian ancestry controls, 60,821 European ancestry cases, 330,833 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0508 lower (95% confidence interval 0.038-0.063); p = 6 × 10−14.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 62% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q22.3 — in an intron of BMPR1B.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diverticulosis and diverticulitis (PheCode 562) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diverticulosis and diverticulitis (PheCode 562).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diverticulosis and diverticulitis (PheCode 562) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7673527

What is rs7673527?

rs7673527 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BMPR1B gene. Published research associates it with diverticulosis and diverticulitis (phecode 562). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7673527 linked to?

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

Does having rs7673527 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 rs7673527 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
