    ABSTRACT: Background Chronic kidney disease is a significant health burden worldwide, with increasing incidence. Although several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have investigated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with kidney trait, most studies were focused on European ancestry. Methods We utilized clinical and genetic information collected from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES). Results More than five million SNPs from 58,406 participants were analyzed. After meta-GWAS, 1,360 loci associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at a genome-wide significant level (p = 5 × 10-8) were identified. Among them, 399 loci were validated with at least one other biomarker (blood urea nitrogen [BUN] or eGFRcysC) and 149 loci were validated using b

Screening

  • kidney function with eGFR and creatinine Moderate

    rs1057987 shows strong genome-wide association with eGFR across 58,406 individuals; carriers of non-T alleles may have relatively lower glomerular filtration rate and benefit from proactive monitoring.

    Annual eGFR and serum creatinine measurement; escalate to nephrology if eGFR falls below 60 mL/min/1.73m2
