What the study found

Who was studied 286,581 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.438 higher (95% confidence interval 0.33-0.54); p = 1 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20p12.2 — between genes, 25.4 kb from LINC02871.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs8114628

What is rs8114628?

rs8114628 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02871 gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs8114628 linked to?

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

Does having rs8114628 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 rs8114628 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2024, PMID:39548300. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
