    ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is the third most rapidly growing health condition associated with disability, after dementia and diabetes. By 2050, the total number of patients with osteoarthritis is estimated to reach 1 billion worldwide. As no disease-modifying treatments exist for osteoarthritis, a better understanding of disease aetiopathology is urgently needed. Here we perform a genome-wide association study meta-analyses across up to 489,975 cases and 1,472,094 controls, establishing 962 independent associations, 513 of which have not been previously reported. Using single-cell multiomics data, we identify signal enrichment in embryonic skeletal development pathways. We integrate orthogonal lines of evidence, including transcriptome, proteome and epigenome profiles of primary joint tiss

Lifestyle context

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

Exercise

  • joint-protective exercise program Moderate

    Elevated knee osteoarthritis risk; targeted low-impact exercise maintains joint function and slows progression

    150 min/week moderate-intensity low-impact exercise (swimming, cycling, walking, tai chi)

Lifestyle

  • maintain healthy body weight Moderate

    Obesity accelerates knee osteoarthritis progression; weight reduction decreases joint load and cartilage stress

    Target BMI <25 kg/m2, or 5-10% weight loss if overweight

Screening

  • baseline joint health assessment Moderate

    Elevated osteoarthritis risk warrants baseline imaging to identify early changes and track progression

    Baseline X-ray or ultrasound by age 40-45, repeat every 2-3 years if symptoms or risk factors present
