    ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

    ABSTRACT: Background Chronic kidney disease is a significant health burden worldwide, with increasing incidence. Although several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have investigated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with kidney trait, most studies were focused on European ancestry. Methods We utilized clinical and genetic information collected from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES). Results More than five million SNPs from 58,406 participants were analyzed. After meta-GWAS, 1,360 loci associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at a genome-wide significant level (p = 5 × 10-8) were identified. Among them, 399 loci were validated with at least one other biomarker (blood urea nitrogen [BUN] or eGFRcysC) and 149 loci were validated using b

Screening

  • kidney function assessment (eGFR and serum creatinine) Moderate

    rs11871637 is strongly associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (p=5.0e-14, n=58,406) through TBX2 and LINC02875 gene regulation, affecting kidney filtration capacity.

    Baseline assessment via serum creatinine and eGFR; annual monitoring or more frequent if additional CKD risk factors present.
