What the study found

Who was studied 44,681 European ancestry cases, 270,987 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.106 lower (95% confidence interval 0.085-0.127); p = 2 × 10−25.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 87% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 21, band 21q22.11 — in an intron of MRPS6.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Takes medication for coronary artery/ coronary heart disease?. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Takes medication for coronary artery/ coronary heart disease?. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Takes medication for coronary artery/ coronary heart disease?. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
