In the BLSA population, the genotype of rs1711437 explains 2.1% of the variation in creatinine clearance and in the InCHIANTI population, the genotype explains 0.9% of the variation. A is the protective allele. For an individual who carries the A allele, his or her creatinine clearance is approximately that of someone 4–5 years younger who does not carry the A allele.
The association between rs1711437 genotype and creatinine clearance has not been replicated in additional populations
