  • Novel genetic loci associated with osteoarthritis in multi-ancestry analyses in the Million Veteran Program and UK Biobank. - Nature genetics (2022) · McDonald MN, Lakshman Kumar P, Srinivasasainagendra V, Nair A, Rocco AP, Wilson AC, Chiles JW, Richman JS, Pinson SA, Dennis RA, Jagadale V, Brown CJ, Pyarajan S, Tiwari HK, Bamman MM, Singh JA · PubMed 36411363

    Osteoarthritis is a common progressive joint disease. As no effective medical interventions are available, osteoarthritis often progresses to the end stage, in which only surgical options such as total joint replacement are available. A more thorough understanding of genetic influences of osteoarthritis is essential to develop targeted personalized approaches to treatment, ideally long before the end stage is reached. To date, there have been no large multiancestry genetic studies of osteoarthritis. Here, we leveraged the unique resources of 484,374 participants in the Million Veteran Program and UK Biobank to address this gap. Analyses included participants of European, African, Asian and Hispanic descent. We discovered osteoarthritis-associated genetic variation at 10 loci and replicated

Lifestyle context

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

Lifestyle

  • joint-protective exercise routine Moderate

    CRADD variant is associated with osteoarthritis risk; regular exercise reduces joint stress and inflammation.

    150 minutes per week of low-impact activities

  • weight management for joint health Moderate

    CRADD variant is associated with osteoarthritis risk; excess weight increases mechanical stress on joints.

    maintain BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2 or work with provider on personalized targets

Screening

  • osteoarthritis symptom screening Moderate

    CRADD variant confers elevated osteoarthritis risk; early detection enables timely intervention.

    annual assessment for joint pain, stiffness, swelling, or functional limitations
