Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Abdominal aortic aneurysm — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Circ Res 2016, PMID:27899403)

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Abdominal aortic aneurysm. (GWAS Catalog, Circ Res 2016, PMID:27899403)

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Abdominal aortic aneurysm compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Circ Res 2016, PMID:27899403)

Questions about rs9316871

What is rs9316871?

rs9316871 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00540 gene. Published research associates it with abdominal aortic aneurysm. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9316871 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 rs9316871 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circ Res 2016, PMID:27899403. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
