    ABSTRACT: Clinical laboratory tests are a critical component of the continuum of care. We evaluate the genetic basis of 35 blood and urine laboratory measurements in the UK Biobank (n=363,228 individuals). We identify 1,857 loci associated with at least one trait, containing 3,374 fine-mapped associations, and additional sets of large-effect (> 0.1 sd) protein-altering, HLA, and copy-number variant associations. Through Mendelian Randomization analysis, we discover 51 causal relationships, including previously known agonistic effects of urate on gout and cystatin C on stroke. Finally, we develop polygenic risk scores for each biomarker and built 'multi-PRS' models for diseases using 35 PRSs simultaneously, which improved chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, gout, and alcoholic cirr

Lifestyle context

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

Bloodwork

  • triglyceride and HDL cholesterol levels High

    LPL rs11782626 shows strong genome-wide association with triglyceride and HDL variation; monitoring helps assess phenotype risk

    check annually; baseline if not done

Diet

  • reduce refined carbohydrates and trans fats for triglyceride control Moderate

    LPL-linked genetic variants affecting triglycerides respond favorably to reduced simple carbohydrate and trans-fat intake

    limit added sugars, refined grains, and trans fats; emphasize whole grains, legumes, polyunsaturated fats

Exercise

  • regular aerobic exercise for triglyceride management Moderate

    Aerobic exercise reduces triglycerides and raises HDL; particularly relevant for those with LPL genetic variants affecting these traits

    150 minutes moderate-intensity aerobic weekly or 75 vigorous-intensity
