    ABSTRACT: Lung-function impairment underlies chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and predicts mortality. In the largest multi-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of lung function to date, comprising 588,452 participants, we identified 1,020 independent association signals implicating 559 genes supported by ≥2 criteria from a systematic variant-to-gene mapping framework. These genes were enriched in 29 pathways. Individual variants showed heterogeneity across ancestries, age and smoking groups, and collectively as a genetic risk score showed strong association with COPD across ancestry groups. We undertook phenome-wide association studies for selected associated variants as well as trait and pathway-specific genetic risk scores to infer possible consequences of interve

Lifestyle context

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

Exercise

  • regular aerobic exercise Moderate

    Aerobic activity helps maintain lung function, particularly important given genetic predisposition to lower baseline values

    aim for 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity

Lifestyle

  • smoking and air pollution exposure Moderate

    Genetic predisposition to lower lung function increases respiratory damage from smoking and pollutants

    avoid smoking completely, minimize indoor and outdoor air pollution exposure

Screening

  • baseline FEV1/FVC spirometry testing Moderate

    rs1147107 A allele is associated with reduced FEV1/FVC ratio in genome-wide association study

    obtain baseline spirometry if not done recently, then annual monitoring
