    ABSTRACT: Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Biobank (UKBB), it is now possible to study aging over time at genome-wide scale. In this work, we evaluated the suitability of competing models of change in realistic simulation settings, performed genome-wide association scans on simulation-validated measures of age-related deweekcline, and followed up with LD-score regression and Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses. Focusing on global cognitive and physical function, we observed marked differences between baseline function (θ) and accelerated decline (Δ). Both outcomes showed distinct heritability levels (e.g., 31.38% versus 3.15%

Lifestyle context

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

Discuss with your doctor

  • respiratory health screening and monitoring plan Moderate

    GWAS finding of reduced FEV warrants medical assessment of respiratory status and individualized monitoring strategy

Lifestyle

  • smoking and air pollution exposure Moderate

    Reduced baseline FEV increases risk of accelerated lung function decline with respiratory irritant exposure

Screening

  • baseline pulmonary function testing Moderate

    GWAS association indicates reduced FEV with C risk allele; baseline spirometry establishes individual respiratory status

    Obtain spirometry (or re-baseline if >2 years since last test)
