    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

  • Reduce refined carbohydrates and added sugars Moderate

    Refined carbohydrates elevate blood glucose; rs10459327 carriers show impaired glucose metabolism

    Emphasize whole grains, legumes, non-starchy vegetables; limit processed foods and sugar

Exercise

  • Regular aerobic and resistance exercise Moderate

    Physical activity reduces type 2 diabetes and triglyceride risk in genetically predisposed individuals

    150+ minutes moderate aerobic activity per week plus 2+ resistance training sessions per week

Lifestyle

  • Weight management for metabolic health Moderate

    Weight loss and maintenance reduce type 2 diabetes risk in genetically predisposed individuals

    Target BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2; discuss weight loss strategies with physician if appropriate

Screening

  • HbA1c and fasting glucose screening Moderate

    rs10459327 is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes risk (GWAS p=4.00e-14, effect=0.042 in n=612947)

    Baseline testing if not done in past year; repeat every 1-3 years or per physician guidance

  • Lipid panel including triglycerides Moderate

    rs10459327 is associated with elevated triglycerides (GWAS p=2.00e-12, effect=0.022 in n=558939)

    Baseline fasting lipid panel; repeat per physician recommendation
