Total cholesterol levels

near TECTB · rs7895373

What the study found

Who was studied 58,701 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.69 lower (95% confidence interval 1.26-2.12); p = 2 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q25.2 — between genes, 19.7 kb from TECTB.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7895373

What is rs7895373?

rs7895373 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TECTB gene. Published research associates it with total cholesterol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7895373 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 rs7895373 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biomedicines 2022, PMID:35884923. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
