Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39024449
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

Polygenic Hyperlipidemias and Coronary Artery Disease Risk - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32154731
ABSTRACT: Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Hyperlipidemia is a highly heritable risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). While monogenic familial hypercholesterolemia associates with severely increased CAD risk, it remains less clear to what extent a high polygenic load of a large number of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol (LDL-C) or triglyceride (TG)-increasing variants associates with increased CAD risk. Methods: We derived polygenic risk scores (PRSs) with ≈6M variants separately for LDL-C and TG with weights from a UK Biobank-based genome-wide association study with ≈324K samples. We evaluated the impact of polygenic hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia to lipid levels in 27 039 individuals from the National FINRISK Study

Lifestyle context
Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.
Screening
-
annual comprehensive eye examination High
Variant increases open-angle glaucoma risk; early detection through screening prevents vision loss
Annual eye exam including intraocular pressure measurement, more frequent if elevated
-
annual lipid panel screening High
Variant associated with elevated LDL cholesterol; regular screening enables early intervention
Annual lipid panel, or more frequently if LDL levels are elevated
