  • A scalable variational inference approach for increased mixed-model association power - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39789286

    ABSTRACT: The rapid growth of modern biobanks is creating new opportunities for large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWASs) and the analysis of complex traits. However, performing GWASs on millions of samples often leads to trade-offs between computational efficiency and statistical power, reducing the benefits of large-scale data collection efforts. We developed Quickdraws, a method that increases association power in quantitative and binary traits without sacrificing computational efficiency, leveraging a spike-and-slab prior on variant effects, stochastic variational inference and graphics processing unit acceleration. We applied Quickdraws to 79 quantitative and 50 binary traits in 405,088 UK Biobank samples, identifying 4.97% and 3.25% more associations than REGENIE and 22.71%

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Bloodwork

  • serum uric acid (urate) level Moderate

    rs10118003 C allele associates with higher serum urate levels, increasing risk for gout and chronic kidney disease

    Measure serum urate annually; more frequently if elevated

Diet

  • reduce high-purine foods and beverages Moderate

    Dietary purines are metabolized to urate; reducing purine-rich foods helps lower serum urate in individuals with genetic predisposition to elevated levels

    Limit organ meats, shellfish, red meat, and high-fructose beverages

Discuss with your doctor

  • serum urate management strategy Moderate

    Genetic predisposition to elevated urate warrants preventive discussion with doctor about management and risk reduction
