Gout is a chronic disease that is caused by an innate immune response to deposited monosodium urate crystals in the setting of hyperuricemia. Here, we provide insights into the molecular mechanism of the poorly understood inflammatory component of gout from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 2.6 million people, including 120,295 people with prevalent gout. We detected 377 loci and 410 genetically independent signals (149 previously unreported loci in urate and gout). An additional 65 loci with signals in urate (from a GWAS of 630,117 individuals) but not gout were identified. A prioritization scheme identified candidate genes in the inflammatory process of gout, including genes involved in epigenetic remodeling, cell osmolarity and regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) i

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

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%

Urate, Blood Pressure, and Cardiovascular Disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33356394
ABSTRACT: Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Serum urate has been implicated in hypertension and cardiovascular disease, but it is not known whether it is exerting a causal effect. To investigate this, we performed Mendelian randomization analysis using data from UK Biobank, Million Veterans Program and genome-wide association study consortia, and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. The main Mendelian randomization analyses showed that every 1-SD increase in genetically predicted serum urate was associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease (odds ratio, 1.19 [95% CI, 1.10-1.30]; P=4×10−5), peripheral artery disease (1.12 [95% CI, 1.03-1.21]; P=9×10−3), and stroke (1.11 [95% CI, 1.05-1.18]; P=2×10−4). In Mendelian randomization med

Large-scale cross-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis of serum urate - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38658550
ABSTRACT: Hyperuricemia is an essential causal risk factor for gout and is associated with cardiometabolic diseases. Given the limited contribution of East Asian ancestry to genome-wide association studies of serum urate, the genetic architecture of serum urate requires exploration. A large-scale cross-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of 1,029,323 individuals and ancestry-specific meta-analysis identifies a total of 351 loci, including 17 previously unreported loci. The genetic architecture of serum urate control is similar between European and East Asian populations. A transcriptome-wide association study, enrichment analysis, and colocalization analysis in relevant tissues identify candidate serum urate-associated genes, including CTBP1, SKIV2L, and WWP2. A phenome-wide ass

Lifestyle context
Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.
Diet
-
High-purine foods: organ meats, red meat, shellfish Moderate
The SNP associates with elevated gout risk; purine restriction is standard gout prevention strategy.
Avoid or minimize organ meats, red meat, shellfish, high-fructose beverages
Lifestyle
-
Adequate daily hydration for uric acid clearance Moderate
Sufficient fluid intake helps prevent urate crystal precipitation and supports renal excretion of uric acid.
Drink at least 2.5-3 liters of water daily; adjust upward with physical activity
Screening
-
Serum urate levels and gout symptom screening High
This variant associates with increased gout risk via altered serum urate levels and magnesium metabolism.
Check baseline serum urate level; annually monitor and immediately if experiencing joint pain or swelling
Supplements
-
Magnesium supplementation or increased dietary intake Moderate
This variant associates with reduced serum magnesium levels; adequate magnesium supports uric acid metabolism.
Consider magnesium glycinate 300-400mg daily, or increase Mg-rich foods (spinach, pumpkin seeds, almonds)
