  • Discovery of 318 new risk loci for type 2 diabetes and related vascular outcomes among 1.4 million participants in a multi-ethnic meta-analysis - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32541925

    ABSTRACT: We investigated type 2 diabetes (T2D) genetic susceptibility via multi-ethnic meta-analysis of 228,499 cases and 1,178,783 controls in the Million Veteran Program, DIAMANTE, Biobank Japan, and other studies. We report 568 associations, including 286 autosomal, 7 X chromosomal, and 25 identified in ancestry-specific analyses that were previously unreported. Transcriptome-wide association analysis detected 3,568 T2D-associations with genetically predicted gene expression in 687 novel genes; of these, 54 are known to interact with FDA-approved drugs. A polygenic risk score was strongly associated with increased risk of T2D-related retinopathy and modestly associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), peripheral artery disease (PAD), and neuropathy. We investigated the genetic etiolo

Lifestyle context

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

Diet

  • emphasize low glycemic index foods and increase fiber Moderate

    Dietary composition affects glucose homeostasis and insulin demand; appropriate for individuals at genetic diabetes risk.

    prioritize whole grains, vegetables, legumes; limit refined grains and sugary foods; target 25-30g fiber daily

Exercise

  • regular aerobic and resistance exercise Moderate

    Physical activity enhances insulin sensitivity and glucose regulation, particularly important for genetically predisposed individuals.

    150 minutes moderate aerobic activity and 2+ sessions resistance training per week

Lifestyle

  • maintain healthy body weight Moderate

    Obesity increases insulin resistance; weight maintenance or loss improves metabolic outcomes in genetically susceptible individuals.

    aim for BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2, or 5-10% weight loss if currently overweight

Screening

  • annual blood glucose and HbA1c screening Moderate

    This variant (C allele) is associated with increased type 2 diabetes risk (p=3.0e-12 in 1.4M individuals); regular monitoring supports early detection.

    fasting glucose and HbA1c annually, starting by age 40 or earlier if overweight
