Creatinine levels

STC1 · rs819196

What the study found

Who was studied 69,591 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0405 lower (95% confidence interval 0.03-0.051); p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 53% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.2 — between genes, 30.4 kb from STC1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs819196

What is rs819196?

rs819196 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STC1 gene. Published research associates it with creatinine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs819196 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 rs819196 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:31015462. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
