What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Atrial fibrillation compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Eur J Clin Invest 2021, PMID:33990960)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Atrial fibrillation. (GWAS Catalog, Eur J Clin Invest 2021, PMID:33990960)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Atrial fibrillation — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Eur J Clin Invest 2021, PMID:33990960)

Questions about rs9886216

What is rs9886216?

rs9886216 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CAV1 gene. Published research associates it with atrial fibrillation. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9886216 linked to?

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

Does having rs9886216 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 rs9886216 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Eur J Clin Invest 2021, PMID:33990960. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
