    ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

Lifestyle context

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

Diet

  • limit dietary sodium intake Moderate

    High sodium increases urinary calcium, key component in kidney stones

    Target <2300mg sodium daily; consult urologist for personalized limits

Lifestyle

  • increase daily water intake for kidney stone prevention Moderate

    High urine volume reduces concentration of stone-forming minerals

    Aim for 2.5-3L urine output daily; increase fluid intake as needed

Screening

  • baseline kidney imaging for stone assessment Moderate

    Variant strongly associated with kidney stone formation

    Discuss baseline ultrasound or CT abdomen with physician
