Beta-2-microglobulin level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (10574_10)

near CCL3 · rs9900984

What the study found

Who was studied 466 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 2.02 higher (95% confidence interval 1.65-2.39); p = 6 × 10−26.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 3% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q12 — between genes, 4.6 kb from CCL3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Beta-2-microglobulin level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (10574_10). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Beta-2-microglobulin level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (10574_10). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Beta-2-microglobulin level in Chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (10574_10). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9900984

What is rs9900984?

rs9900984 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CCL3 gene. Published research associates it with beta-2-microglobulin level in chronic kidney disease with hypertension and no diabetes (10574_10). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9900984 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 rs9900984 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Kidney international 2022, PMID:35870639. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
