    ABSTRACT: Metal elements are present in the human body, and their levels in the blood have important impacts on health. In this study, 2488 Chinese individuals were included in a genome-wide association study of 21 serum metal levels, with approximately 179,000 East Asian individuals in a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis, and 628,000 Europeans in a two-sample MR analysis. We identified two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs35691438 and rs671 that were significantly associated with serum copper levels (SCLs). The bidirectional two-sample MR analysis in the East Asian population showed that gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase levels have a causal effect on SCLs. SCLs have causal effects on six outcomes, namely risks of esophageal varix, glaucoma, sleep apnea sy

Lifestyle context

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

Bloodwork

  • plasma lead level testing Moderate

    C allele associated with increased plasma lead accumulation; carriers at elevated baseline risk.

    Baseline plasma lead test; repeat every 1-2 years if result elevated.

Lifestyle

  • lead sources in water, soil, and products Moderate

    Genetic predisposition to elevated lead levels increases clinical importance of environmental lead exposure reduction.

    Use NSF-certified water filter; minimize contact with pre-1978 paint; test home drinking water.
