Abstract
BACKGROUND Underweight and obesity are associated with adverse health outcomes throughout the life course. We estimated the individual and combined prevalence of underweight or thinness and obesity, and their changes, from 1990 to 2022 for adults and school-aged children and adolescents in 200 countries and territories. METHODS We used data from 3663 population-based studies with 222 million participants that measured height and weight in representative samples of the general population. We used a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate trends in the prevalence of different BMI categories, separately for adults (age ≥20 years) and school-aged children and adolescents (age 5-19 years), from 1990 to 2022 for 200 countries and territories. For adults, we report the individual and combined prevalence of underweight (BMI <18·5 kg/m2) and obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m2). For school-aged children and adolescents, we report thinness (BMI <2 SD below the median of the WHO growth reference) and obesity (BMI >2 SD above the median). FINDINGS From 1990 to 2022, the combined prevalence of underweight and obesity in adults decreased in 11 countries (6%) for women and 17 (9%) for men with a posterior probability of at least 0·80 that the observed changes were true decreases. The combined prevalence increased in 162 countries (81%) for women and 140 countries (70%) for men with a posterior probability of at least 0·80. In 2022, the combined prevalence of underweight and obesity was highest in island nations in the Caribbean and Polynesia and Micronesia, and countries in the Middle East and north Africa. Obesity prevalence was higher than underweight with posterior probability of at least 0·80 in 177 countries (89%) for women and 145 (73%) for men in 2022, whereas the converse was true in 16 countries (8%) for women, and 39 (20%) for men. From 1990 to 2022, the combined prevalence of thinness and obesity decreased among girls in five countries (3%) and among boys in 15 countries (8%) with a posterior probability of at least 0·80, and increased among girls in 140 countries (70%) and boys in 137 countries (69%) with a posterior probability of at least 0·80. The countries with highest combined prevalence of thinness and obesity in school-aged children and adolescents in 2022 were in Polynesia and Micronesia and the Caribbean for both sexes, and Chile and Qatar for boys. Combined prevalence was also high in some countries in south Asia, such as India and Pakistan, where thinness remained prevalent despite having declined. In 2022, obesity in school-aged children and adolescents was more prevalent than thinness with a posterior probability of at least 0·80 among girls in 133 countries (67%) and boys in 125 countries (63%), whereas the converse was true in 35 countries (18%) and 42 countries (21%), respectively. In almost all countries for both adults and school-aged children and adolescents, the increases in double burden were driven by increases in obesity, and decreases in double burden by declining underweight or thinness. INTERPRETATION The combined burden of underweight and obesity has increased in most countries, driven by an increase in obesity, while underweight and thinness remain prevalent in south Asia and parts of Africa. A healthy nutrition transition that enhances access to nutritious foods is needed to address the remaining burden of underweight while curbing and reversing the increase in obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension, a complex condition, is primarily defined based on blood pressure readings without involving its pathophysiological mechanisms. We aimed to identify biomarkers through a proteomic approach, thereby enhancing the future definition of hypertension with insights into its molecular mechanisms. METHODS The discovery analysis included 1560 participants, aged 55 to 74 years at baseline, from the KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg) S4/F4/FF4 cohort study, with 3332 observations over a median of 13.4 years of follow-up. Generalized estimating equations were used to estimate the associations of 233 plasma proteins with hypertension and systolic blood pressure (SBP). For validation, proteins significantly associated with hypertension or SBP in discovery analysis were validated in the KORA-Age1/Age2 cohort study (1024 participants, 1810 observations). A 2-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to infer causalities of validated proteins with SBP. RESULTS Discovery analysis identified 49 proteins associated with hypertension and 99 associated with SBP. Validation in the KORA-Age1/Age2 study replicated 7 proteins associated with hypertension and 23 associated with SBP. Three proteins, NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide), KIM1 (kidney injury molecule 1), and OPG (osteoprotegerin), consistently showed positive associations with both outcomes. Five proteins demonstrated potential causal associations with SBP in Mendelian randomization analysis, including NT-proBNP and OPG. CONCLUSIONS We identified and validated 7 hypertension-associated and 23 SBP-associated proteins across 2 cohort studies. KIM1, NT-proBNP, and OPG demonstrated robust associations, and OPG was identified for the first time as associated with blood pressure. For NT-proBNP (protective) and OPG, causal associations with SBP were suggested.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Circulating omentin levels have been positively associated with insulin sensitivity. Although a role for adiponectin in this relationship has been suggested, underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In order to reveal the relationship between omentin and systemic metabolism, this study aimed to investigate associations of serum concentrations of omentin and metabolites. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This study is based on 1124 participants aged 61-82 years from the population-based KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg) F4 Study, for whom both serum omentin levels and metabolite concentration profiles were available. Associations were assessed with five multivariable regression models, which were stepwise adjusted for multiple potential confounders, including age, sex, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, lifestyle markers (physical activity, smoking behavior and alcohol consumption), serum adiponectin levels, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, use of lipid-lowering or anti-inflammatory medication, history of myocardial infarction and stroke, homeostasis model assessment 2 of insulin resistance, diabetes status, and use of oral glucose-lowering medication and insulin. RESULTS Omentin levels significantly associated with multiple metabolites including amino acids, acylcarnitines, and lipids (eg, sphingomyelins and phosphatidylcholines (PCs)). Positive associations for several PCs, such as diacyl (PC aa C32:1) and alkyl-alkyl (PC ae C32:2), were significant in models 1-4, whereas those with hydroxytetradecenoylcarnitine (C14:1-OH) were significant in all five models. Omentin concentrations were negatively associated with several metabolite ratios, such as the valine-to-PC ae C32:2 and the serine-to-PC ae C32:2 ratios in most models. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that omentin may influence insulin sensitivity and diabetes risk by changing systemic lipid metabolism, but further mechanistic studies investigating effects of omentin on metabolism of insulin-sensitive tissues are needed.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes1,2 and molecular mechanisms that are often specific to cell type3,4. Here, to characterize the genetic contribution to these processes across ancestry groups, we aggregate genome-wide association study data from 2,535,601 individuals (39.7% not of European ancestry), including 428,452 cases of T2D. We identify 1,289 independent association signals at genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10-8) that map to 611 loci, of which 145 loci are, to our knowledge, previously unreported. We define eight non-overlapping clusters of T2D signals that are characterized by distinct profiles of cardiometabolic trait associations. These clusters are differentially enriched for cell-type-specific regions of open chromatin, including pancreatic islets, adipocytes, endothelial cells and enteroendocrine cells. We build cluster-specific partitioned polygenic scores5 in a further 279,552 individuals of diverse ancestry, including 30,288 cases of T2D, and test their association with T2D-related vascular outcomes. Cluster-specific partitioned polygenic scores are associated with coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease and end-stage diabetic nephropathy across ancestry groups, highlighting the importance of obesity-related processes in the development of vascular outcomes. Our findings show the value of integrating multi-ancestry genome-wide association study data with single-cell epigenomics to disentangle the aetiological heterogeneity that drives the development and progression of T2D. This might offer a route to optimize global access to genetically informed diabetes care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic and experimental studies support a causal involvement of IL-6 (interleukin-6) signaling in atheroprogression. Although trials targeting IL-6 signaling are underway, any benefits must be balanced against an impaired host immune response. Dissecting the mechanisms that mediate the effects of IL-6 signaling on atherosclerosis could offer insights about novel drug targets with more specific effects. METHODS Leveraging data from 522 681 individuals, we constructed a genetic instrument of 26 variants in the gene encoding the IL-6R (IL-6 receptor) that proxied for pharmacological IL-6R inhibition. Using Mendelian randomization, we assessed its effects on 3281 plasma proteins quantified with an aptamer-based assay in the INTERVAL cohort (n=3301). Using mediation Mendelian randomization, we explored proteomic mediators of the effects of genetically proxied IL-6 signaling on coronary artery disease, large artery atherosclerotic stroke, and peripheral artery disease. For significant mediators, we tested associations of their circulating levels with incident cardiovascular events in a population-based study (n=1704) and explored the histological, transcriptomic, and cellular phenotypes correlated with their expression levels in samples from human atherosclerotic lesions. RESULTS We found significant effects of genetically proxied IL-6 signaling on 70 circulating proteins involved in cytokine production/regulation and immune cell recruitment/differentiation, which correlated with the proteomic effects of pharmacological IL-6R inhibition in a clinical trial. Among the 70 significant proteins, genetically proxied circulating levels of CXCL10 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10) were associated with risk of coronary artery disease, large artery atherosclerotic stroke, and peripheral artery disease, with up to 67% of the effects of genetically downregulated IL-6 signaling on these end points mediated by decreases in CXCL10. Higher midlife circulating CXCL10 levels were associated with a larger number of cardiovascular events over 20 years, whereas higher CXCL10 expression in human atherosclerotic lesions correlated with a larger lipid core and a transcriptomic profile reflecting immune cell infiltration, adaptive immune system activation, and cytokine signaling. CONCLUSIONS Integrating multiomics data, we found a proteomic signature of IL-6 signaling activation and mediators of its effects on cardiovascular disease. Our analyses suggest the interferon-γ-inducible chemokine CXCL10 to be a potentially causal mediator for atherosclerosis in 3 vascular compartments and, as such, could serve as a promising drug target for atheroprotection.

Long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and inflammatory response in the KORA study. Sci Total Environ 2024; 912:169416.

Abstract
Previous studies consistently showed an association between fine atmospheric particulate matter (PM2.5) and cardiovascular diseases. Concerns about adverse health effects of ultrafine particles (UFP) are growing but long-term studies are still scarce. In this study, we examined the association between long-term exposure to ambient air pollutants and blood biomarkers of inflammation and coagulation, including fibrinogen, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), serum amyloid A (SAA) adiponectin and interleukin-6 (IL-6), measured in the German KORA-S4 cohort study (1999-2001). IL-6 was available for older participants only, who were therefore considered as a subsample. Annual mean concentrations of UFP (as particle number concentration), particulate matter in different particles sizes (PM10, PMcoarse, PM2.5, PM2.5 absorbance), ozone (O3), and nitrogen oxides (NO2, NOX) were estimated by land-use regression models and assigned to participants' home addresses. We performed a multiple linear regression between each pollutant and each biomarker with adjustment for confounders. Per 1 interquartile range (IQR, 1945 particles/cm3) increase of UFP, fibrinogen increased by 0.70 % (0.04; 1.37) and hs-CRP increased by 3.16 % (-0.52; 6.98). Adiponectin decreased by -2.53 % (-4.78; -0.24) per 1 IQR (1.4 μg/m3) increase of PM2.5. Besides, PM2.5 was associated with increased IL-6 in the subsample. In conclusion, we observed that long-term exposure to air pollutants, including both fine and ultrafine particles, was associated with higher concentrations of pro-inflammatory and lower concentrations of an anti-inflammatory blood biomarkers, which is consistent with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease observed for long-term exposure to air pollutants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary intake of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) may have a protective effect on the development of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, depression and cancer, while a high intake of n-6 PUFA was often reported to be associated with inflammation-related traits. The effect of PUFAs on health outcomes might be mediated by DNA methylation (DNAm). The aim of our study is to identify the impact of PUFA intake on DNAm in the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) FF4 cohort and the Leiden Longevity Study (LLS). RESULTS DNA methylation levels were measured in whole blood from the population-based KORA FF4 study (N = 1354) and LLS (N = 448), using the Illumina MethylationEPIC BeadChip and Illumina HumanMethylation450 array, respectively. We assessed associations between DNAm and intake of eight and four PUFAs in KORA and LLS, respectively. Where possible, results were meta-analyzed. Below the Bonferroni correction threshold (p < 7.17 × 10-8), we identified two differentially methylated positions (DMPs) associated with PUFA intake in the KORA study. The DMP cg19937480, annotated to gene PRDX1, was positively associated with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in model 1 (beta: 2.00 × 10-5, 95%CI: 1.28 × 10-5-2.73 × 10-5, P value: 6.98 × 10-8), while cg05041783, annotated to gene MARK2, was positively associated with docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) in our fully adjusted model (beta: 9.80 × 10-5, 95%CI: 6.25 × 10-5-1.33 × 10-4, P value: 6.75 × 10-8). In the meta-analysis, we identified the CpG site (cg15951061), annotated to gene CDCA7L below Bonferroni correction (1.23 × 10-7) associated with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) intake in model 1 (beta: 2.00 × 10-5, 95% CI: 1.27 × 10-5-2.73 × 10-5, P value = 5.99 × 10-8) and we confirmed the association of cg19937480 with DHA in both models 1 and 2 (beta: 2.07 × 10-5, 95% CI: 1.31 × 10-5-2.83 × 10-5, P value = 1.00 × 10-7 and beta: 2.19 × 10-5, 95% CI: 1.41 × 10-5-2.97 × 10-5, P value = 5.91 × 10-8 respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our study identified three CpG sites associated with PUFA intake. The mechanisms of these sites remain largely unexplored, highlighting the novelty of our findings. Further research is essential to understand the links between CpG site methylation and PUFA outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the association of serum magnesium with prevalent and incident metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its individual components in the general population and to examine any effect modification by chronic kidney disease (CKD) status. METHODS We analysed longitudinal data from the population-based KORA F4/FF4 study, including 2996 participants (387 with CKD) for cross-sectional analysis and 1446 participants (88 with CKD) for longitudinal analysis. Associations with MetS, as well as single components of MetS, were assessed by adjusted regression models. Nonlinearity was tested by restricted cubic splines and analyses were stratified by CKD. Causality was evaluated by two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). RESULTS Serum magnesium (1 SD) was inversely associated with prevalent MetS (odds ratio [OR] 0.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.83, 0.98). The association was more pronounced in individuals with CKD (OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.59, 0.94). Among MetS components, serum magnesium was negatively associated with elevated fasting glucose (OR 0.78, 95% CI 0.71, 0.88) and, again, this association was more pronounced in individuals with CKD (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.53, 0.84). Serum magnesium was not associated with incident MetS or its components. Restricted cubic spline analysis revealed a significant nonlinear inverse relationship of serum magnesium with MetS and elevated fasting glucose. MR analysis suggested an inverse causal effect of serum magnesium on MetS (OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.85, 0.97). CONCLUSION Serum magnesium is associated with prevalent, but not incident MetS, and this effect is stronger in individuals with CKD. MR analysis implies a potential, albeit weak, causal role of magnesium in MetS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a major global health concern, especially among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Given the crucial role of proteins in various biological processes, this study aimed to elucidate the aetiological role and predictive performance of protein biomarkers on incident CHD in individuals with and without T2D. METHODS The discovery cohort included 1492 participants from the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) S4 study with 147 incident CHD cases (45 vs. 102 cases in the group with T2D and without T2D, respectively) during 15.6 years of follow-up. The validation cohort included 888 participants from the KORA-Age1 study with 70 incident CHD cases (19 vs. 51 cases in the group with T2D and without T2D, respectively) during 6.9 years of follow-up. We measured 233 plasma proteins related to cardiovascular disease and inflammation using proximity extension assay technology. Associations of proteins with incident CHD were assessed using Cox regression and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Predictive models were developed using priority-Lasso and were evaluated on top of Framingham risk score variables using the C-index, category-free net reclassification index (cfNRI), and relative integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). RESULTS We identified two proteins associated with incident CHD in individuals with and 29 in those without baseline T2D, respectively. Six of these proteins are novel candidates for incident CHD. MR suggested a potential causal role for hepatocyte growth factor in CHD development. The developed four-protein-enriched model for individuals with baseline T2D (ΔC-index: 0.017; cfNRI: 0.253; IDI: 0.051) and the 12-protein-enriched model for individuals without baseline T2D (ΔC-index: 0.054; cfNRI: 0.462; IDI: 0.024) consistently improved CHD prediction in the discovery cohort, while in the validation cohort, significant improvements were only observed for selected performance measures (with T2D: cfNRI: 0.633; without T2D: ΔC-index: 0.038; cfNRI: 0.465). CONCLUSIONS This study identified novel protein biomarkers associated with incident CHD in individuals with and without T2D and reaffirmed previously reported protein candidates. These findings enhance our understanding of CHD pathophysiology and provide potential targets for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Recent investigations have suggested an interdependence of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]-related risk for cardiovascular disease with background inflammatory burden. The aim the present analysis was to investigate whether high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) modulates the association between Lp(a) and coronary heart disease (CHD) in the general population. METHODS Data from 71 678 participants from 8 European prospective population-based cohort studies were used (65 661 without/6017 with established CHD at baseline; median follow-up 9.8/13.8 years, respectively). Fine and Gray competing risk-adjusted models were calculated according to accompanying hsCRP concentration (<2 and ≥2 mg/L). RESULTS Among CHD-free individuals, increased Lp(a) levels were associated with incident CHD irrespective of hsCRP concentration: fully adjusted sub-distribution hazard ratios [sHRs (95% confidence interval)] for the highest vs. lowest fifth of Lp(a) distribution were 1.45 (1.23-1.72) and 1.48 (1.23-1.78) for a hsCRP group of <2 and ≥2 mg/L, respectively, with no interaction found between these two biomarkers on CHD risk (Pinteraction = 0.82). In those with established CHD, similar associations were seen only among individuals with hsCRP ≥ 2 mg/L [1.34 (1.03-1.76)], whereas among participants with a hsCRP concentration <2 mg/L, there was no clear association between Lp(a) and future CHD events [1.29 (0.98-1.71)] (highest vs. lowest fifth, fully adjusted models; Pinteraction = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS While among CHD-free individuals Lp(a) was significantly associated with incident CHD regardless of hsCRP, in participants with CHD at baseline, Lp(a) was related to recurrent CHD events only in those with residual inflammatory risk. These findings might guide adequate selection of high-risk patients for forthcoming Lp(a)-targeting compounds.

Abstract
Objective Measurements utilizing commercially available sets of reagents for determination of steroid hormone profiles by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) have become increasingly important for routine laboratories. However, method-specific publications of reference intervals obtained from sufficiently large studies are often missing. Methods After validation of performance characteristics, a widely available kit for steroid analysis by LC-MS/MS was used to measure concentrations of 15 endogenous steroids (aldosterone, cortisol, cortisone, corticosterone, 11-deoxycortisol, 21-deoxycortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, estradiol, testosterone, androstenedione, dihydrotestosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, 11-deoxycorticosterone, progesterone) in more than 500 blood samples from a population-based study. While randomly selected from a larger cohort, the samples equally represented both sexes and covered a wide range of adult age groups. Age- and sex-specific reference intervals were calculated, and correlation with BMI was assessed. Results Performance characteristics of the assay matched expectations for 9 of 15 steroids. For most of them, reference intervals obtained from our study population were comparable to those reported by others, with age and sex being the major determinants. A sex-specific correlation with BMI was found for seven steroids. We identified limitations regarding sensitivity of the method for quantification of progesterone in males and postmenopausal females. Concentrations of aldosterone, 21-deoxycortisol, estradiol, 11-deoxycorticosterone, and dihydrotestosterone could not be quantified in a large percentage of samples. Conclusions The reference intervals for nine steroids will support meaningful interpretation for steroid profiles as measured by a widely used kit for LC-MS/MS-based quantification. Laboratories using such kits must be aware of potential limitations in sensitivity for some steroids included in the profile. Significance Statement Quantification of steroid hormones is a cornerstone for diagnosis of several diseases. Commonly used immunoassays have limitations in specificity. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is a promising alternative, particularly if methods are harmonized across laboratories. The use of kits from commercial suppliers might support this. Clinical interpretation of steroid concentrations requires availability of appropriate reference intervals (RIs), but studies on RIs reported in the literature differ in preanalytical and analytical procedures. Here, we provide RIs for steroids measured by a widely available kit under preanalytical conditions mirroring common clinical practice. Such RIs might facilitate interpretation for those using the same method and comparable conditions in clinical routine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary intake of antioxidants such as vitamins C and E protect against oxidative stress, and may also be associated with altered DNA methylation patterns. METHODS We meta-analysed epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) results from 11,866 participants across eight population-based cohorts to evaluate the association between self-reported dietary and supplemental intake of vitamins C and E with DNA methylation. EWAS were adjusted for age, sex, BMI, caloric intake, blood cell type proportion, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and technical covariates. Significant results of the meta-analysis were subsequently evaluated in gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and expression quantitative trait methylation (eQTM) analysis. RESULTS In meta-analysis, methylation at 4,656 CpG sites was significantly associated with vitamin C intake at FDR ≤ 0.05. The most significant CpG sites associated with vitamin C (at FDR ≤ 0.01) were enriched for pathways associated with systems development and cell signalling in GSEA, and were associated with downstream expression of genes enriched in the immune response in eQTM analysis. Furthermore, methylation at 160 CpG sites was significantly associated with vitamin E intake at FDR ≤ 0.05, but GSEA and eQTM analysis of the top most significant CpG sites associated with vitamin E did not identify significant enrichment of any biological pathways investigated. CONCLUSIONS We identified significant associations of many CpG sites with vitamin C and E intake, and our results suggest that vitamin C intake may be associated with systems development and the immune response.

Abstract
AIMS The regional and temporal differences in the associations between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its classic risk factors are unknown. The current study examined these associations in different European regions over a 30-year period. METHODS The study sample comprised 553818 individuals from 49 cohorts in 11 European countries (baseline: 1982-2012) who were followed up for a maximum of 10 years. Risk factors (sex, smoking, diabetes, non-HDL [high-density lipoprotein] cholesterol, systolic blood pressure [BP], and body mass index [BMI]) and CVD events (coronary heart disease or stroke) were harmonized across cohorts. Risk factor-outcome associations were analysed using multivariable-adjusted Cox regression models, and differences in associations were assessed using meta-regression. RESULTS The differences in the risk factor-CVD associations between central Europe, northern Europe, southern Europe, and the United Kingdom were generally small. Men had a slightly higher hazard ratio (HR) in southern Europe (p = 0.043 for overall difference) and those with diabetes had a slightly lower HR in central Europe (p = 0.022 for overall difference) compared with the other regions. Of the six CVD risk factors, minor HR decreases per decade were observed for non-HDL cholesterol (7% per mmol/L; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3-10%) and systolic BP (4% per 20 mmHg; 95% CI, 1-8%), while a minor HR increase per decade was observed for BMI (7% per 10 kg/m2; 95% CI, 1-13%). CONCLUSION The results demonstrate that all classic CVD risk factors are still relevant in Europe, irrespective of regional area. Preventive strategies should focus on risk factors with the greatest population attributable risk.

Abstract
Background Both lower and higher estradiol (E2) levels have been associated with increased mortality among women with kidney failure. However, robust data are still lacking. Objective We investigated the interaction of diabetes and age on linear and nonlinear associations between E2 levels, adverse outcomes, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in Canadian women undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Design Population-based cohort study; data from Canadian Kidney Disease Cohort Study (CKDCS). Setting & patients A total of 427 women undergoing HD enrolled in the CKDCS. Measurements Baseline E2 (in pmol/L) and E2 tertiles (<38 pmol/L, 38-95 pmol/L, >95 pmol/L). Methods Cox-proportional hazards used for all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Fine-Gray models used for incident CVD. Mixed models used for Health Utilities Index Mark 3 (HUI3), Kidney Disease Quality of Life Physical Component Scores (KDQOL12-PCS), and Mental Component Scores (KDQOL12-MCS). Results Over a median follow-up of 3.6 (interquartile range [IQR]: 1.6-7.5) years, 250 (58.6%) participants died; 74 deaths (29.6%) were CV-related. Among 234 participants without prior CV events, 80 (34.2%) had an incident CVD event. There were no significant linear associations between E2 and all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, and incident CVD. However, E2 showed a significant concave association with all-cause mortality, but not with CVD mortality and incident CVD. Among patients aged ≥63 years, higher E2 levels were associated with lower HUI3 scores, mean difference (MD) = -0.062 per 1 - SD pmol/L, 95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.112 to -0.012, but the opposite was observed in younger patients (<63 years) in whom higher E2 levels were associated with higher HUI3 scores (MD = 0.032 per 1 - SD pmol/L, 95% CI = 0.008-0.055), Pinteraction = .045. No associations were observed among E2, KDQOL12-PCS (MD = -0.15 per 1 - SD pmol/L, 95% CI = -1.15 to 0.86), and KDQOL12-MCS (MD = -0.63 per 1 - SD pmol/L, 95% CI = -1.82 to 0.57). Limitations Unmeasured confounding and small sample size. Conclusions The association between E2 and all-cause mortality may be nonlinear, while no association was observed for CVD mortality, incident CVD, KDQOL12-PCS, and KDQOL12-MCS. Furthermore, the association between serum E2 and HUI3 was modified by age: Higher levels were associated with higher utility among women aged <63 years and the converse observed among older women.

Abstract
Background Sex hormones and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) may play a role in fatty liver development. We sought to examine the association of various endogenous sex hormones, including testosterone (T), and SHBG with liver fat using complementary observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. Methods The observational analysis included a total of 2,239 participants (mean age 60 years; 35% postmenopausal women) from the population-based KORA study (average follow-up time: 6.5 years). We conducted linear regression analysis to investigate the sex-specific associations of sex hormones and SHBG with liver fat, estimated by fatty liver index (FLI). For MR analyses, we selected genetic variants associated with sex hormones and SHBG and extracted their associations with magnetic resonance imaging measured liver fat from the largest up to date European genome-wide associations studies. Results In the observational analysis, T, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), progesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) were inversely associated with FLI in men, with beta estimates ranging from -4.23 to -2.30 [p-value <0.001 to 0.003]. Whereas in women, a positive association of free T with FLI (β = 4.17, 95%CI: 1.35, 6.98) was observed. SHBG was inversely associated with FLI across sexes [men: -3.45 (-5.13, -1.78); women: -9.23 (-12.19, -6.28)]. No causal association was found between genetically determined sex hormones and liver fat, but higher genetically determined SHBG was associated with lower liver fat in women (β = -0.36, 95% CI: -0.61, -0.12). Conclusion Our results provide suggestive evidence for a causal association between SHBG and liver fat in women, implicating the protective role of SHBG against liver fat accumulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Five modifiable risk factors are associated with cardiovascular disease and death from any cause. Studies using individual-level data to evaluate the regional and sex-specific prevalence of the risk factors and their effect on these outcomes are lacking. METHODS We pooled and harmonized individual-level data from 112 cohort studies conducted in 34 countries and 8 geographic regions participating in the Global Cardiovascular Risk Consortium. We examined associations between the risk factors (body-mass index, systolic blood pressure, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, current smoking, and diabetes) and incident cardiovascular disease and death from any cause using Cox regression analyses, stratified according to geographic region, age, and sex. Population-attributable fractions were estimated for the 10-year incidence of cardiovascular disease and 10-year all-cause mortality. RESULTS Among 1,518,028 participants (54.1% of whom were women) with a median age of 54.4 years, regional variations in the prevalence of the five modifiable risk factors were noted. Incident cardiovascular disease occurred in 80,596 participants during a median follow-up of 7.3 years (maximum, 47.3), and 177,369 participants died during a median follow-up of 8.7 years (maximum, 47.6). For all five risk factors combined, the aggregate global population-attributable fraction of the 10-year incidence of cardiovascular disease was 57.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 52.4 to 62.1) among women and 52.6% (95% CI, 49.0 to 56.1) among men, and the corresponding values for 10-year all-cause mortality were 22.2% (95% CI, 16.8 to 27.5) and 19.1% (95% CI, 14.6 to 23.6). CONCLUSIONS Harmonized individual-level data from a global cohort showed that 57.2% and 52.6% of cases of incident cardiovascular disease among women and men, respectively, and 22.2% and 19.1% of deaths from any cause among women and men, respectively, may be attributable to five modifiable risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) represents a major disease burden in the population. While the bidirectional association between NAFLD and diabetes is established, little is known about the association of hepatic iron content and glycaemia. Moreover, analyses of sex-specific effects and of dynamic changes in glycaemia are scarce. METHODS We investigated 7-year sex-specific trajectories of glycaemia and related traits (HbA1c, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, 2-h glucose and cross-sectional 2-h insulin) in a sample from a population-based cohort (N = 365; 41.1% female). Hepatic iron and fat content were assessed by 3T-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Two-step multi-level models adjusted for glucose-lowering medication and confounders were applied. RESULTS In women and men, markers of glucose metabolism correlated with hepatic iron and fat content. Deterioration of glycaemia was associated with increased hepatic iron content in men (normoglycaemia to prediabetes: beta = 2.21 s-1 , 95% CI [0.47, 3.95]). Additionally, deterioration of glycaemia (e.g. prediabetes to diabetes: 1.27 log(%), [0.84, 1.70]) and trajectories of glucose, insulin and HOMA-IR were significantly associated with hepatic fat content in men. Similarly, deterioration of glycaemia as well as trajectories of glucose, insulin and HOMA-IR was significantly associated with increased hepatic fat content in women (e.g. trajectory of fasting insulin: 0.63 log(%), [0.36, 0.90]). CONCLUSIONS Unfavourable 7-year trajectories of markers of glucose metabolism are associated with increased hepatic fat content, particularly in women, whereas the association with hepatic iron content was less clear. Monitoring changes of glycaemia in the sub-diabetic range might enable early identification of hepatic iron overload and steatosis.

Abstract
AIMS The role of biomarkers in predicting cardiovascular outcomes in high-risk individuals is not well established. We aimed to investigate benefits of adding biomarkers to cardiovascular risk assessment in individuals with and without diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS We used individual-level data of 95 292 individuals of the European population harmonized in the Biomarker for Cardiovascular Risk Assessment across Europe consortium and investigated the prognostic ability of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Cox-regression models were used to determine adjusted hazard ratios of diabetes and log-transformed biomarkers for fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. Models were compared using the likelihood ratio test. Stratification by specific biomarker cut-offs was performed for crude time-to-event analysis using Kaplan-Meier plots. Overall, 6090 (6.4%) individuals had diabetes at baseline, median follow-up was 9.9 years. Adjusting for classical risk factors and biomarkers, diabetes [HR 2.11 (95% CI 1.92, 2.32)], and all biomarkers (HR per interquartile range hs-cTnI 1.08 [95% CI 1.04, 1.12]; NT-proBNP 1.44 [95% CI 1.37, 1.53]; hs-CRP 1.27 [95% CI 1.21, 1.33]) were independently associated with cardiovascular events. Specific cut-offs for each biomarker identified a high-risk group of individuals with diabetes losing a median of 15.5 years of life compared to diabetics without elevated biomarkers. Addition of biomarkers to the Cox-model significantly improved the prediction of outcomes (likelihood ratio test for nested models P < 0.001), accompanied by an increase in the c-index (increase to 0.81). CONCLUSION Biomarkers improve cardiovascular risk prediction in individuals with and without diabetes and facilitate the identification of individuals with diabetes at highest risk for cardiovascular events.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS This study aimed to elucidate the aetiological role of plasma proteins in glucose metabolism and type 2 diabetes development. METHODS We measured 233 proteins at baseline in 1653 participants from the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) S4 cohort study (median follow-up time: 13.5 years). We used logistic regression in the cross-sectional analysis (n=1300), and Cox regression accounting for interval-censored data in the longitudinal analysis (n=1143). We further applied two-level growth models to investigate associations with repeatedly measured traits (fasting glucose, 2 h glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-B, HOMA-IR, HbA1c), and two-sample Mendelian randomisation analysis to investigate causal associations. Moreover, we built prediction models using priority-Lasso on top of Framingham-Offspring Risk Score components and evaluated the prediction accuracy through AUC. RESULTS We identified 14, 24 and four proteins associated with prevalent prediabetes (i.e. impaired glucose tolerance and/or impaired fasting glucose), prevalent newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes and incident type 2 diabetes, respectively (28 overlapping proteins). Of these, IL-17D, IL-18 receptor 1, carbonic anhydrase-5A, IL-1 receptor type 2 (IL-1RT2) and matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein were novel candidates. IGF binding protein 2 (IGFBP2), lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and paraoxonase 3 (PON3) were inversely associated while fibroblast growth factor 21 was positively associated with incident type 2 diabetes. LPL was longitudinally linked with change in glucose-related traits, while IGFBP2 and PON3 were linked with changes in both insulin- and glucose-related traits. Mendelian randomisation analysis suggested causal effects of LPL on type 2 diabetes and fasting insulin. The simultaneous addition of 12 priority-Lasso-selected biomarkers (IGFBP2, IL-18, IL-17D, complement component C1q receptor, V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing protein 2, IL-1RT2, LPL, CUB domain-containing protein 1, vascular endothelial growth factor D, PON3, C-C motif chemokine 4 and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5) significantly improved the predictive performance (ΔAUC 0.0219; 95% CI 0.0052, 0.0624). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION We identified new candidates involved in the development of derangements in glucose metabolism and type 2 diabetes and confirmed previously reported proteins. Our findings underscore the importance of proteins in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and the identified putative proteins can function as potential pharmacological targets for diabetes treatment and prevention.

Abstract
Conventional measurements of fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels investigated in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) cannot capture the effects of DNA variability on 'around the clock' glucoregulatory processes. Here we show that GWAS meta-analysis of glucose measurements under nonstandardized conditions (random glucose (RG)) in 476,326 individuals of diverse ancestries and without diabetes enables locus discovery and innovative pathophysiological observations. We discovered 120 RG loci represented by 150 distinct signals, including 13 with sex-dimorphic effects, two cross-ancestry and seven rare frequency signals. Of these, 44 loci are new for glycemic traits. Regulatory, glycosylation and metagenomic annotations highlight ileum and colon tissues, indicating an underappreciated role of the gastrointestinal tract in controlling blood glucose. Functional follow-up and molecular dynamics simulations of lower frequency coding variants in glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R), a type 2 diabetes treatment target, reveal that optimal selection of GLP-1R agonist therapy will benefit from tailored genetic stratification. We also provide evidence from Mendelian randomization that lung function is modulated by blood glucose and that pulmonary dysfunction is a diabetes complication. Our investigation yields new insights into the biology of glucose regulation, diabetes complications and pathways for treatment stratification.

Abstract
Circulating proteins have important functions in inflammation and a broad range of diseases. To identify genetic influences on inflammation-related proteins, we conducted a genome-wide protein quantitative trait locus (pQTL) study of 91 plasma proteins measured using the Olink Target platform in 14,824 participants. We identified 180 pQTLs (59 cis, 121 trans). Integration of pQTL data with eQTL and disease genome-wide association studies provided insight into pathogenesis, implicating lymphotoxin-α in multiple sclerosis. Using Mendelian randomization (MR) to assess causality in disease etiology, we identified both shared and distinct effects of specific proteins across immune-mediated diseases, including directionally discordant effects of CD40 on risk of rheumatoid arthritis versus multiple sclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease. MR implicated CXCL5 in the etiology of ulcerative colitis (UC) and we show elevated gut CXCL5 transcript expression in patients with UC. These results identify targets of existing drugs and provide a powerful resource to facilitate future drug target prioritization.

Abstract
The association between socioeconomic status (SES) and alcohol-related diseases has been widely explored. Less is known, however, on whether the association of moderate drinking with all-cause mortality is modified by educational level (EL). Using harmonized data from 16 cohorts in the MORGAM Project (N = 142,066) the association of pattern of alcohol intake with hazard of all-cause mortality across EL (lower = primary-school; middle = secondary-school; higher = university/college degree) was assessed using multivariable Cox-regression and spline curves. A total of 16,695 deaths occurred in 11.8 years (median). In comparison with life-long abstainers, participants drinking 0.1-10 g/d of ethanol had 13% (HR = 0.87; 95%CI: 0.74-1.02), 11% (HR = 0.89; 0.84-0.95) and 5% (HR = 0.95; 0.89-1.02) lower rate of death in higher, middle and lower EL, respectively. Conversely, drinkers > 20 g/d had 1% (HR = 1.01; 0.82-1.25), 10% (HR = 1.10; 1.02-1.19) and 17% (HR = 1.17; 1.09-1.26) higher rate of death. The association of alcohol consumption with all-cause mortality was nonlinear, with a different J-shape by EL levels. It was consistent across both sexes and in various approaches of measuring alcohol consumption, including combining quantity and frequency and it was more evident when the beverage of preference was wine. We observed that drinking in moderation (≤ 10 g/d) is associated with lower mortality rate more evidently in individuals with higher EL than in people with lower EL, while heavy drinking is associated with higher mortality rate more evidently in individuals with lower EL than in people with higher EL, suggesting that advice on reducing alcohol intake should especially target individuals of low EL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the asymptomatic nature of the early stages, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is usually diagnosed at late stages and lacks targeted therapy, highlighting the need for new biomarkers to better understand its pathophysiology and to be used for early diagnosis and therapeutic targets. Given the close relationship between CKD and cardiovascular disease (CVD), we investigated the associations of 233 CVD- and inflammation-related plasma proteins with kidney function decline and aimed to assess whether the observed associations are causal. METHODS We included 1140 participants, aged 55-74 years at baseline, from the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) cohort study, with a median follow-up time of 13.4 years and 2 follow-up visits. We measured 233 plasma proteins using a proximity extension assay at baseline. In the discovery analysis, linear regression models were used to estimate the associations of 233 proteins with the annual rate of change in creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcr). We further investigated the association of eGFRcr-associated proteins with the annual rate of change in cystatin C-based eGFR (eGFRcys) and eGFRcr-based incident CKD. Two-sample Mendelian randomization was used to infer causality. RESULTS In the fully adjusted model, 66 out of 233 proteins were inversely associated with the annual rate of change in eGFRcr, indicating that higher baseline protein levels were associated with faster eGFRcr decline. Among these 66 proteins, 21 proteins were associated with both the annual rate of change in eGFRcys and incident CKD. Mendelian randomization analyses on these 21 proteins suggest a potential causal association of higher tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 11A (TNFRSF11A) level with eGFR decline. CONCLUSIONS We reported 21 proteins associated with kidney function decline and incident CKD and provided preliminary evidence suggesting a potential causal association between TNFRSF11A and kidney function decline. Further Mendelian randomization studies are needed to establish a conclusive causal association.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The recent consensus statement of ESPEN and EASO recommends reviewing existing datasets to assess the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity based on the new definition and diagnostic criteria. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity in a population-based study and to assess the association of this new definition with clinical traits. METHODS The KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg)-Age baseline examination (2008/2009) comprised 1079 participants aged 65 years and older from southern Germany. Sarcopenic obesity was defined in 998 participants (mean age 75.6 years, 498 women) with complete data according to the 2022 ESPEN and EASO algorithm, which includes reduced handgrip strength, reduced skeletal muscle mass per weight, and elevated fat mass. Body composition was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Associations between sarcopenic obesity and physical activity, disability, multimorbidity, and polypharmacy were assessed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The overall prevalence of sarcopenic obesity was 4.5 % (5.0 % in men, 4.0 % in women). Sarcopenic obesity was associated with disability (2.87 [CI 1.84-4.48]), multimorbidity (≥ 2 comorbidities; 2.59 [CI 1.23-5.46]), polypharmacy (≥ 5 drugs; 1.96 [CI 1.05-3.63]), cognitive impairment (3.03 [CI 1.51-6.06]) and arthritis (2.66 [CI 1.39-5.07]) after adjusting for age, sex and marital status. CONCLUSION Sarcopenic obesity is prevalent in the older German population and is associated with several clinical traits. Future longitudinal studies are needed to further elucidate whether the observed associations could be causal.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes. To characterise the genetic contribution to these processes across ancestry groups, we aggregate genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from 2,535,601 individuals (39.7% non-European ancestry), including 428,452 T2D cases. We identify 1,289 independent association signals at genome-wide significance (P<5×10-8) that map to 611 loci, of which 145 loci are previously unreported. We define eight non-overlapping clusters of T2D signals characterised by distinct profiles of cardiometabolic trait associations. These clusters are differentially enriched for cell-type specific regions of open chromatin, including pancreatic islets, adipocytes, endothelial, and enteroendocrine cells. We build cluster-specific partitioned genetic risk scores (GRS) in an additional 137,559 individuals of diverse ancestry, including 10,159 T2D cases, and test their association with T2D-related vascular outcomes. Cluster-specific partitioned GRS are more strongly associated with coronary artery disease and end-stage diabetic nephropathy than an overall T2D GRS across ancestry groups, highlighting the importance of obesity-related processes in the development of vascular outcomes. Our findings demonstrate the value of integrating multi-ancestry GWAS with single-cell epigenomics to disentangle the aetiological heterogeneity driving the development and progression of T2D, which may offer a route to optimise global access to genetically-informed diabetes care.

Abstract
Background Genetic and experimental studies support a causal involvement of interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling in atheroprogression. While trials targeting IL-6 signaling are underway, any benefits must be balanced against an impaired host immune response. Dissecting the mechanisms that mediate the effects of IL-6 signaling on atherosclerosis could offer insights about novel drug targets with more specific effects. Methods Leveraging data from 522,681 individuals, we constructed a genetic instrument of 26 variants in the gene encoding the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) that proxied for pharmacological IL-6R inhibition. Using Mendelian randomization (MR), we assessed its effects on 3,281 plasma proteins quantified with an aptamer-based assay in the INTERVAL cohort (n=3,301). Using mediation MR, we explored proteomic mediators of the effects of genetically proxied IL-6 signaling on coronary artery disease (CAD), large artery atherosclerotic stroke (LAAS), and peripheral artery disease (PAD). For significant mediators, we tested associations of their circulating levels with incident cardiovascular events in a population-based study (n=1,704) and explored the histological, transcriptomic, and cellular phenotypes correlated with their expression levels in samples from human atherosclerotic lesions. Results We found significant effects of genetically proxied IL-6 signaling on 70 circulating proteins involved in cytokine production/regulation and immune cell recruitment/differentiation, which correlated with the proteomic effects of pharmacological IL-6R inhibition in a clinical trial. Among the 70 significant proteins, genetically proxied circulating levels of CXCL10 were associated with risk of CAD, LAAS, and PAD with up to 67% of the effects of genetically downregulated IL-6 signaling on these endpoints mediated by decreases in CXCL10. Higher midlife circulating CXCL10 levels were associated with a larger number of cardiovascular events over 20 years, whereas higher CXCL10 expression in human atherosclerotic lesions correlated with a larger lipid core and a transcriptomic profile reflecting immune cell infiltration, adaptive immune system activation, and cytokine signaling. Conclusions Integrating multiomics data, we found a proteomic signature of IL-6 signaling activation and mediators of its effects on cardiovascular disease. Our analyses suggest the interferon-γ-inducible chemokine CXCL10 to be a potentially causal mediator for atherosclerosis in three vascular compartments and as such could serve as a promising drug target for atheroprotection.

Abstract
The coexistence of several chronic diseases is very common in older adults, making it crucial to understand multimorbidity (MM) patterns and associated mortality. We aimed to determine the prevalence of MM and common chronic disease combinations, as well as their impact on mortality in men and women aged 65 years and older using the population-based KORA-Age study, based in South of Germany. The chronic disease status of the participants was determined in 2008/9, and mortality status was followed up until 2016. MM was defined as having at least two chronic diseases. We used Cox proportional hazard models to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations between MM and all-cause mortality. During the study period 495 men (24.6%) and 368 women (17.4%) died. Although the MM prevalence was almost the same in men (57.7%) and women (60.0%), the overall effect of MM on mortality was higher in men (HR: 1.81, 95% CI: 1.47–2.24) than in women (HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.01–1.64; p-value for interaction <0.001). The type of disease included in the MM patterns had a significant impact on mortality risk. For example, when both heart disease and diabetes were included in the combinations of two and three diseases, the mortality risk was highest. The risk of premature death does not only depend on the number of diseases but also on the specific disease combinations. In this study, life expectancy depended strongly on a few diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aldosterone excess is linked to cardiovascular events and mortality as well as to low-grade inflammation in the context of metabolic diseases. Whether mildly elevated aldosterone levels in the general population promote cardiovascular risk is still under debate. We analyzed the association of plasma aldosterone concentrations with incident cardiovascular events, cardiovascular and all-cause mortality as well as with biomarkers of subclinical inflammation in the population-based KORA F4 study. METHODS Plasma aldosterone concentrations were measured with an in-house immunoflurometric assay. The analyses included 2935 participants (n=1076 for selected biomarkers of subclinical inflammation) with a median follow-up of 8.7 (8.2; 9.1) years. The associations were estimated using Cox proportional hazard and linear regression models adjusted for renin, sex, age, body mass index, arterial hypertension, diabetes, estimated glomerular filtration rate, low- and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, physical activity, smoking, use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers, diuretics and calcium channel blockers. RESULTS Aldosterone was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (hazard ratio per standard deviation increase: 1.20; 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.37), but not with cardiovascular mortality, incident cardiovascular events, or with biomarkers of subclinical inflammation. CONCLUSIONS Aldosterone was associated with all-cause mortality in the population-based KORA F4 study, but the previously described associations of excess aldosterone with cardiovascular complications and biomarkers of subclinical inflammation could not be shown.

Abstract
The application of multiple omics technologies in biomedical cohorts has the potential to reveal patient-level disease characteristics and individualized response to treatment. However, the scale and heterogeneous nature of multi-modal data makes integration and inference a non-trivial task. We developed a deep-learning-based framework, multi-omics variational autoencoders (MOVE), to integrate such data and applied it to a cohort of 789 people with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes with deep multi-omics phenotyping from the DIRECT consortium. Using in silico perturbations, we identified drug-omics associations across the multi-modal datasets for the 20 most prevalent drugs given to people with type 2 diabetes with substantially higher sensitivity than univariate statistical tests. From these, we among others, identified novel associations between metformin and the gut microbiota as well as opposite molecular responses for the two statins, simvastatin and atorvastatin. We used the associations to quantify drug-drug similarities, assess the degree of polypharmacy and conclude that drug effects are distributed across the multi-omics modalities.

Abstract
Optimal growth and development in childhood and adolescence is crucial for lifelong health and well-being1-6. Here we used data from 2,325 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight from 71 million participants, to report the height and body-mass index (BMI) of children and adolescents aged 5-19 years on the basis of rural and urban place of residence in 200 countries and territories from 1990 to 2020. In 1990, children and adolescents residing in cities were taller than their rural counterparts in all but a few high-income countries. By 2020, the urban height advantage became smaller in most countries, and in many high-income western countries it reversed into a small urban-based disadvantage. The exception was for boys in most countries in sub-Saharan Africa and in some countries in Oceania, south Asia and the region of central Asia, Middle East and north Africa. In these countries, successive cohorts of boys from rural places either did not gain height or possibly became shorter, and hence fell further behind their urban peers. The difference between the age-standardized mean BMI of children in urban and rural areas was <1.1 kg m-2 in the vast majority of countries. Within this small range, BMI increased slightly more in cities than in rural areas, except in south Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and some countries in central and eastern Europe. Our results show that in much of the world, the growth and developmental advantages of living in cities have diminished in the twenty-first century, whereas in much of sub-Saharan Africa they have amplified.

Abstract
AIMS Associations of plasma viscosity and plasma Ig levels (a determinant of viscosity) with incident coronary heart disease (CHD) events; and with CHD, cardiovascular disease (CVD: CHD and stroke) and all-cause mortalities. METHODS Meta-analysis of plasma viscosity levels from the MONitoring of trends and determinants of CArdiovascular (MONICA)/Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg, MONICA Glasgow and Speedwell Studies; and five other published studies. Meta-analysis of IgA, IgG and IgM levels from the Augsburg, Glasgow and Speedwell studies; and one other published study. RESULTS Over median follow-up periods of 14-26 years, there were 2270 CHD events, and 4220 all cause deaths in 28 605 participants with baseline plasma viscosity measurements. After adjustment for major risk factors, (HRs; 95% CIs) for a 1 SD increase in viscosity were 1.14 (1.09 to 1.20) for CHD events; and 1.21 (1.17 to 1.25) for all-cause mortality. 821 CHD events and 2085 all-cause deaths occurred in 8218 participants with baseline Ig levels. For CHD events, adjusted HRs for 1 SD increases in IgA, IgG and IgM were, respectively, 0.97 (0.89 to 1.05); 0.95(0.76 to 1.17) and 0.90 (0.79 to 1.03). Corresponding adjusted HRs for all-cause mortality were 1.08 (95% CI 1.02 to 1.13), 1.03 (95% CI 0.94 to 1.14) and 1.01 (95% CI 0.96 to 1.06). CONCLUSIONS After risk factor adjustment, plasma viscosity was significantly associated with risks of CHD events; and with CHD, CVD and all-cause mortalities. We found no significant association of IgA, IgG or IgM levels with incident CHD events or mortality, except for a borderline association of IgA with all-cause mortality.

Abstract
Distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN) is a common condition in older populations with high prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes. We hypothesised that the risk of DSPN is increased by multiple ubiquitous environmental risk factors, particularly in people with obesity. This study was based on 423 individuals aged 62-81 years without DSPN who participated in the population-based Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) F4 survey (2006-2008) in Southern Germany. During 6.5 years of follow-up, 188 participants developed clinical DSPN as assessed by the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument. Environmental exposures, including air temperature, surrounding greenness (assessed with the normalized difference vegetation index [NDVI]), long-term road traffic noise and air pollution, were assessed at participants' residences. The cumulative risk index (CRI) evaluated the joint effects of co-occurring exposures on DSPN risk based on effect estimates from multi-exposure Poisson regression models. The models were adjusted for age, sex, height, waist circumference, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, education and neighbourhood socioeconomic status. In the entire cohort, the co-occurrence of an interquartile range (IQR) decrease in temperature of the warm season and NDVI in a 100-m buffer and of an IQR increase in night-time average traffic noise and in annual average particle number concentration (PNC) was positively associated with incident DSPN (CRI [95 % CI] 1.39 [1.02, 1.91]). Effect estimates for exposure combinations were generally higher in individuals with obesity (CRI 1.34-2.01) than in those without obesity (CRI 0.90-1.33). The four-exposure model showed a twofold increased risk of DSPN among obese (CRI [95 % CI] 2.01 [1.10, 3.67]), but not among non-obese individuals (CRI [95 % CI] 1.18 [0.83, 1.67]). Thus, ubiquitous environmental exposures jointly augment the risk of DSPN in the older population. Lower air temperature in the warm season, less greenness, and higher noise levels and ultrafine particle concentrations identified people with obesity as a particularly vulnerable subgroup.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) updated in 2018 the cut-off points for low grip strength to assess sarcopenia based on pooled data from 12 British studies. OBJECTIVE Comparison of the EWGSOP2 cut-off points for low grip strength to those derived from a large German sample. METHODS We assessed the grip strength distribution across age and derived low grip strength cut-off points for men and women (peak mean -2.5 × SD) based on 200,389 German National Cohort (NAKO) participants aged 19-75 years. In 1,012 Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA)-Age participants aged 65-93 years, we calculated the age-standardised prevalence of low grip strength and time-dependent sensitivity and specificity for all-cause mortality. RESULTS Grip strength increased in the third and fourth decade of life and declined afterwards. Calculated cut-off points for low grip strength were 29 kg for men and 18 kg for women. In KORA-Age, the age-standardised prevalence of low grip strength was 1.5× higher for NAKO-derived (17.7%) compared to EWGSOP2 (11.7%) cut-off points. NAKO-derived cut-off points yielded a higher sensitivity and lower specificity for all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS Cut-off points for low grip strength from German population-based data were 2 kg higher than the EWGSOP2 cut-off points. Higher cut-off points increase the sensitivity, thereby suggesting an intervention for more patients at risk, while other individuals might receive additional diagnostics/treatment without the urgent need. Research on the effectiveness of intervention in patients with low grip strength defined by different cut-off points is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The amount of empirical research on whether people in fact include health-related changes in leisure time into health state valuations is limited and the results are inconclusive. In this exploratory study, we analyse whether time aspects of diabetes self-care might explain the ratings of the health state (HSR) in addition to the effects of physical and mental health-related quality of life. METHODS Using the data from participants with diagnosed type 2 diabetes in the population-based KORA FF4 study (n = 190, 60% Male, mean age 69 ± 10 years), multiple logistic regression models were fitted to explain HSR (good vs. poor) in terms of the SF-12 physical and mental component summary (PCS and MCS) scores, time spent on diabetes self-care and a number of background variables. RESULTS There was no significant association between time spent on diabetes self-care and HSR in models without interaction. Significant interaction term was found between the SF-12 PCS score and time spent on self-care. In models with interaction self-care time has a small, but significant impact on the HSR. In particular, for a PCS score under 40, more time increases the chance to rate the health state as "good", while for a PCS score above 40 there is a reverse effect. CONCLUSIONS The additional impact of self-care time on HSR in our sample is small and seems to interact with physical health-related quality of life. More research is needed on whether inclusion of health-related leisure time changes in the denominator of cost-effectiveness analysis is sufficient.

Abstract
Several studies have implied a role of magnesium in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Thus, magnesium might serve as a potential risk marker for early CVD. Therefore, we investigated the association of serum magnesium and dietary magnesium intake with markers of subclinical CVD in a population-based study. We used cross-sectional data from the sub-study of the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA-FF4). Markers of subclinical CVD, namely, left and right ventricular structure and function and carotid plaque and carotid wall thickness, were derived by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Multivariable-adjusted regression models were applied to assess the relationship between serum and dietary magnesium and MRI-derived subclinical CVD markers. Among 396 included participants (mean age: 56.3 ± 9.2 years; 57.8% male), 181 (45.7%) had low serum magnesium levels (<2.07 mg/dL). Among 311 subjects with complete dietary data (mean age: 56.3 ± 9.1 years; 56.3% male), 154 (49.5%) had low dietary magnesium intake (≤155.2 mg/1000 kcal/day). Serum and dietary magnesium were not correlated (p-value = 0.5). Serum magnesium was significantly associated with presence of carotid plaque (OR 1.62, p-value 0.033). Dietary magnesium was associated with higher left ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic volume (0.04 mL/m2, 0.06 mL/m2; p-value 0.011, 0.013, respectively), and also with a decrease in left ventricular remodeling index and mean diastolic wall thickness (−0.001 g/mL/m2, −0.002 mm/m2; p-value 0.004, 0.029, respectively). In summary, there was no consistent association of serum and dietary magnesium with imaging markers of subclinical CVD.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Cardiovascular biomarkers may reflect different aspects of cardiovascular disease, including myocardial tissue damage (high-sensitive cardiac troponin [hs-cTn]), hemodynamic stress (N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP)), or inflammation (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hs-CRP]).
Purpose
To determine the risk for fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), a high-risk group for cardiovascular complications, after accounting for these biomarkers and to determine the risk associated with these biomarkers.
Methods
Harmonized data of population-based studies from the Biomarkers for Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Europe (BiomaCaRE) and MOnica Risk, Genetics, Archiving and Monograph (MORGAM) consortia were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs, 95% confidence intervals [CI] per standard deviation) for these biomarkers adjusted for diabetes, patient characteristics and biomarkers for their association with the primary endpoint of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events during a median follow-up of 9.6 years (maximum 28 years). Additionally, a years-of-life-lost analysis was conducted stratified by prevalent diabetes and specific biomarker cut-offs known to be associated with increased risk for events (hs-cTnI >5 ng/L, NTproBNP >125 ng/L, hs-CRP >5mg/L).
Results
We included 95,302 individuals, of whom 6,501 had DM (6.8%). Cox-regression analysis revealed DM to be independently associated with the primary endpoint (2.1 [95% CI 1.9, 2.3], p<0.001) despite adjustment for clinical characteristics and biomarkers. Also, all three biomarkers were independent predictors themselves: log-transformed NT-proBNP 1.3 [95% CI 1.3, 1.4] p<0.001; log-transformed hs-CRP 1.2 [95% CI 1.1, 1.2] p<0.001; third-root-transformed hs-cTnI 1.1 [95% CI 1.0, 1.1] p=0.0038). The sex-, age- and cohort-adjusted HR for the primary endpoint according to absolute biomarker concentrations derived by cox-regression models using cubic splines is provided for the three biomarkers in Figure 1. Upon dichotomization of biomarkers, individuals with diabetes and at least one elevated biomarker lost a median of 15.5 healthy years because of the primary endpoint (Kaplan-Meier plot in Figure 2, with age on the x-axis).
Conclusion
Our findings confirm that diabetes confers a residual cardiovascular risk beyond adjustment for clinical characteristics and cardiovascular biomarker. Furthermore, biomarkers may aid in the identification of patients at highest risk, which should be considered in future models of risk prediction.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Accurate risk prediction for future cardiovascular disease (CVD) is crucial for timely initiation of preventive measures in high-risk individuals. Most risk scores, such as the recently updated SCORE2 risk-prediction model supported by the European Society of Cardiology, consider only traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Whether the addition of circulating biomarkers to the existing SCORE2 model may improve risk prediction is unclear.
Purpose
We aimed to evaluate the incremental utility of four widely available circulating biomarkers to improve the prediction of 10-year CVD-risk beyond SCORE2.
Methods
Data from ten prospective population-based cohorts from seven countries across Europe were collected if information on SCORE2-variables and at least one of the following four investigational biomarkers was available: high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), NT-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Primary outcome was incidence of CVD at 10 years, defined as the composite of cardiovascular mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke. We used Fine and Gray models adjusted for competing-risk and SCORE2-variables as well as penalized cubic splines to assess and visualize the association of individual biomarkers with incident CVD. In a multimarker approach, we performed backward selection to identify biomarkers providing independent predictive value beyond SCORE2-components. C-indices and category-free net reclassification index (cfNRI) were used to compare the performance of the original SCORE2 model to the biomarker-extended model.
Results
In 78'507 individuals, median age was 50 years and 50.3% were females. NT-proBNP, hs-CRP and hs-cTnI but not eGFR showed strong associations with 10-year CVD-risk when adjusted for SCORE2 and provided incremental predictive value when individually added to SCORE2 (Figure 1). In a multimarker approach, all three biomarkers remained independently associated with CVD beyond SCORE2 with strongest association of NT-proBNP, followed by hs-CRP and hs-cTnI (Table 1). The simultaneous addition of these three biomarkers to the SCORE2 model significantly increased discrimination (C-index; 0.782 [95% CI, 0.757, 0.806] versus 0.793 [95% CI, 0.768, 0.817], Delta 0.011 [95% CI, 0.005, 0.016]) and risk reclassification, driven by an improvement in non-events (cfNRIoverall 0.17 [95% CI, 0.12, 0.22], cfNRIevents 0.06 [95% CI, 0.02, 0.11], cfNRInon-events 0.11 [95% CI, 0.10, 0.11]).
Conclusion
NT-proBNP, hs-CRP and hs-cTnI but not eGFR provide incremental predictive value when added to the SCORE2 risk-prediction model and may help to further improve personalized CVD-risk prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to evaluate the relationship of fatty liver, estimated by fatty liver index (FLI), with kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a German cohort study, given the lack of prospective evidence in Europeans. METHODS We included 2920 participants (51.6% women, mean age 56.1 years) from the KORA study, of which 1991 were followed up for an average of 6.4 (± 0.3) years. Kidney function was assessed using the glomerular filtration rate estimated by creatinine (eGFR-cr) or cystatin C (eGFR-cc). We used multiple logistic or linear regressions to evaluate the associations between FLI, kidney function and CKD (eGFR < 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2), and mediation analysis to explore the mediation effects of metabolic factors. RESULTS The prevalence of FLI ≥ 60 and CKD were 40.4% and 5.6% at baseline, and 182 participants developed CKD during the follow-up. Cross-sectionally, FLI was significantly inversely associated with eGFR-cc [β, 95%CI: -1.14 (-1.81, -0.47)] and prevalent CKD based on eGFR-cc [OR, 95%CI: 1.28 (1.01, 1.61)], but not with other markers. After adjusting for lifestyle factors, we found a positive association between FLI and incident CKD defined by eGFR-cc or/eGFR-cr, which was attenuated after controlling for metabolic risk factors. Mediation analysis showed that the association was completely mediated by inflammation, diabetes and hypertension jointly. CONCLUSIONS The positive association between FLI and CKD incidence was fully mediated by the joint effect of metabolic risk factors. Future longitudinal studies need to explore the chronological interplay between fatty liver, cardiometabolic risk factors and kidney function with repeated measurements.

Abstract
DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns in peripheral blood have been shown to be associated with aging related health outcomes. We perform an epigenome-wide screening to identify CpGs related to frailty, defined by a frailty index (FI), in a large population-based cohort of older adults from Germany, the ESTHER study. Sixty-five CpGs are identified as frailty related methylation loci. Using LASSO regression, 20 CpGs are selected to derive a DNAm based algorithm for predicting frailty, the epigenetic frailty risk score (eFRS). The eFRS exhibits strong associations with frailty at baseline and after up to five-years of follow-up independently of established frailty risk factors. These associations are confirmed in another independent population-based cohort study, the KORA-Age study, conducted in older adults. In conclusion, we identify 65 CpGs as frailty-related loci, of which 20 CpGs are used to calculate the eFRS with predictive performance for frailty over long-term follow-up.

Abstract
Although physical activity and sedentary behavior are moderately heritable, little is known about the mechanisms that influence these traits. Combining data for up to 703,901 individuals from 51 studies in a multi-ancestry meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies yields 99 loci that associate with self-reported moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity during leisure time (MVPA), leisure screen time (LST) and/or sedentary behavior at work. Loci associated with LST are enriched for genes whose expression in skeletal muscle is altered by resistance training. A missense variant in ACTN3 makes the alpha-actinin-3 filaments more flexible, resulting in lower maximal force in isolated type IIA muscle fibers, and possibly protection from exercise-induced muscle damage. Finally, Mendelian randomization analyses show that beneficial effects of lower LST and higher MVPA on several risk factors and diseases are mediated or confounded by body mass index (BMI). Our results provide insights into physical activity mechanisms and its role in disease prevention.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing worldwide, and previous studies have suggested that it is higher in individuals who are seropositive for herpesviruses. This study examines the prospective association of herpesviruses with (pre)diabetes to evaluate their potential role in diabetes aetiology. METHODS Two follow-up examinations of the German population-based KORA cohort (F4 and FF4) were used to identify participants with normal glucose tolerance at baseline, thus being at risk for (pre)diabetes (n = 1257). All participants had repeated OGTTs and antibody measurements for herpes simplex virus (HSV) 1 and 2, varicella-zoster virus, Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and human herpesvirus 6 and 7. Regression models were used to evaluate the association between serostatus with (pre)diabetes incidence after a 7 year follow-up and HbA1c. RESULTS HSV2 and CMV were associated with (pre)diabetes incidence after adjustment for sex, age, BMI, education, smoking, physical activity, parental diabetes, hypertension, lipid levels, insulin resistance and fasting glucose. Seropositivity of both viruses was also cross-sectionally associated with higher HbA1c at baseline, with the association of HSV2 being independent of confounders, including the prevalence of (pre)diabetes itself. While seropositivity for multiple herpesviruses was associated with a higher incidence of (pre)diabetes, this association was not independent of confounders. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION The associations of HSV2 and CMV serostatus with (pre)diabetes incidence indicate that these herpesviruses may contribute to the development of impaired glucose metabolism. Our results highlight the link between viral infection and (pre)diabetes, and the need for more research evaluating viral prevention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The phase angle (PhA) measured with bioelectrical impedance analysis is considered to reflect the interrelated components body cell mass and fluid distribution based on technical and physical aspects of the PhA measurement. However, the biomedical meaning of the PhA remains vague. Previous studies mainly assessed associations of the PhA with numerous diseases and health outcomes, but few connected protein markers to the PhA. To broaden our understanding of the biomedical background of the PhA, we aimed to explore a proteomics profile associated with the PhA and related biological factors. METHODS The study sample encompassed 1484 participants (725 women and 759 men) aged 55-74 years from the population-based Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) S4 study. Proteomics measurements were performed with a proximity extension assay. We employed boosting with stability selection to establish a set of markers that was strongly associated with the PhA from a group of 233 plasma protein markers. We integrated the selected protein markers into a network and enrichment analysis to identify gene ontology (GO) terms significantly overrepresented for the selected PhA protein markers. RESULTS Boosting with stability selection identified seven protein markers that were strongly and independently associated with the PhA: N-terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 2 (IGFBP2), adrenomedullin (ADM), myoglobin (MB), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9), protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase 2 (TGM2), and fractalkine (CX3CL1) [beta coefficient per 1 standard deviation increase in normalized protein expression values on a log 2 scale (95% confidence interval): -0.12 (-0.15, -0.08), -0.13 (-0.17, -0.09), -0.14 (-0.18, -0.10), 0.10 (0.07, 0.14), 0.07 (0.04, 0.10), 0.08 (0.05, 0.11), -0.06 (-0.10, -0.03), respectively]. According to the enrichment analysis, this protein profile was significantly overrepresented in the following top five GO terms: positive regulation of cell population proliferation (p-value: 1.32E-04), extracellular space (p-value: 1.34E-04), anatomical structure formation involved in morphogenesis (p-value: 2.92E-04), regulation of multicellular organismal development (p-value: 5.72E-04), and metal ion homeostasis (p-value: 8.86E-04). CONCLUSION Implementing a proteomics approach, we identified six new protein markers strongly associated with the PhA and confirmed that NT-proBNP is a key PhA marker. The main biological processes that were related to this PhA's protein profile are involved in regulating the amount and growth of cells, reinforcing, from a biomedical perspective, the current technical-based consensus of the PhA to reflect body cell mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endothelin-1 (ET-1) and adrenomedullin (ADM) are commonly known as vasoactive peptides that regulate vascular homeostasis. Less recognised is the fact that both peptides could affect glucose metabolism. Here, we investigated whether ET-1 and ADM, measured as C-terminal-proET-1 (CT-proET-1) and mid-regional-proADM (MR-proADM), respectively, were associated with incident type 2 diabetes. METHODS Based on the population-based Biomarkers for Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Europe (BiomarCaRE) Consortium data, we performed a prospective cohort study to examine associations of CT-proET-1 and MR-proADM with incident type 2 diabetes in 12,006 participants. During a median follow-up time of 13.8 years, 862 participants developed type 2 diabetes. The associations were examined in Cox proportional hazard models. Additionally, we performed two-sample Mendelian randomisation analyses using published data. RESULTS CT-proET-1 and MR-proADM were positively associated with incident type 2 diabetes. The multivariable hazard ratios (HRs) [95% confidence intervals (CI)] were 1.10 [1.03; 1.18], P = 0.008 per 1-SD increase of CT-proET-1 and 1.11 [1.02; 1.21], P = 0.016 per 1-SD increase of log MR-proADM, respectively. We observed a stronger association of MR-proADM with incident type 2 diabetes in obese than in non-obese individuals (P-interaction with BMI < 0.001). The HRs [95%CIs] were 1.19 [1.05; 1.34], P = 0.005 and 1.02 [0.90; 1.15], P = 0.741 in obese and non-obese individuals, respectively. Our Mendelian randomisation analyses yielded a significant association of CT-proET-1, but not of MR-proADM with type 2 diabetes risk. CONCLUSIONS Higher concentrations of CT-proET-1 and MR-proADM are associated with incident type 2 diabetes, but our Mendelian randomisation analysis suggests a probable causal link for CT-proET-1 only. The association of MR-proADM seems to be modified by body composition.

Abstract
We assembled an ancestrally diverse collection of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in 180,834 affected individuals and 1,159,055 controls (48.9% non-European descent) through the Diabetes Meta-Analysis of Trans-Ethnic association studies (DIAMANTE) Consortium. Multi-ancestry GWAS meta-analysis identified 237 loci attaining stringent genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10-9), which were delineated to 338 distinct association signals. Fine-mapping of these signals was enhanced by the increased sample size and expanded population diversity of the multi-ancestry meta-analysis, which localized 54.4% of T2D associations to a single variant with >50% posterior probability. This improved fine-mapping enabled systematic assessment of candidate causal genes and molecular mechanisms through which T2D associations are mediated, laying the foundations for functional investigations. Multi-ancestry genetic risk scores enhanced transferability of T2D prediction across diverse populations. Our study provides a step toward more effective clinical translation of T2D GWAS to improve global health for all, irrespective of genetic background.

Abstract
Introduction Endothelin-1 and its prohormone C-terminal pro-endothelin-1 (CT-proET-1) have been linked to metabolic alterations, inflammatory responses and cardiovascular events in selected study populations. We analyzed the association of CT-proET-1 with cardiovascular events and mortality, carotid intima-media-thickness as surrogate for early atherosclerotic lesions, biomarkers of subclinical inflammation and adipokines in a population-based study. Methods The cross-sectional and prospective analyses used data from the KORA F4 study with a median follow-up time of 9.1 (8.8–9.4) years. Data on CT-proET-1 and mortality were available for 1554 participants, data on the other outcomes in subgroups (n = 596–1554). The associations were estimated using multivariable linear regression and Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for sex, age, body mass index, estimated glomerular filtration rate, arterial hypertension, diabetes, low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, current and former smoking and physical activity. The Bonferroni method was used to correct for multiple testing. Results In the fully adjusted model, CT-proET-1 was associated with cardiovascular (hazard ratio (HR) per standard deviation increase: 1.66; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.10–2.51; p = 0.017) and all-cause mortality (HR: 2.03; 95% CI 1.55–2.67; p < 0.001), but not with cardiovascular events, and was inversely associated with the intima-media thickness (β: −0.09 ± 0.03; p = 0.001). CT-proET-1 was positively associated with five out of ten biomarkers of subclinical inflammation and with two out of five adipokines after correction for multiple testing. After inclusion of biomarkers of subclinical inflammation in the Cox proportional hazard model, the association of CT-proET-1 with all-cause mortality persisted (p < 0.001). Conclusion These results emphasize the complexity of endothelin-1 actions and/or indicator functions of CT-proET-1. CT-proET-1 is a risk marker for all-cause mortality, which is likely independent of vascular endothelin-1 actions, cardiovascular disease and inflammation.

SETTING Sixteen cohorts (15 from Europe) in the MOnica Risk, Genetics, Archiving and Monograph (MORGAM) Project. PARTICIPANTS A total of 142 960 individuals (mean age 50 ± 13 years, 53.9% men). MEASUREMENTS Average alcohol intake by food frequency questionnaire, total and cause-specific mortality. FINDINGS In comparison with life-time abstainers, consumption of alcohol less than 10 g/day was associated with an average 11% [95% confidence interval (CI) = 7-14%] reduction in the risk of total mortality, while intake > 20 g/day was associated with a 13% (95% CI = 7-20%) increase in the risk of total mortality. Comparable findings were observed for cardiovascular (CV) deaths. With regard to cancer, drinking up to 10 g/day was not associated with either mortality risk reduction or increase, while alcohol intake > 20 g/day was associated with a 22% (95% CI = 10-35%) increased risk of mortality. The association of alcohol with fatal outcomes was similar in men and women, differed somewhat between countries and was more apparent in individuals preferring wine, suggesting that benefits may not be due to ethanol but other ingredients. Mediation analysis showed that high-density lipoprotein cholesterol explained 2.9 and 18.7% of the association between low alcohol intake and total as well as CV mortality, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In comparison with life-time abstainers, consuming less than one drink per day (nadir at 5 g/day) was associated with a reduced risk of total, cardiovascular and other causes mortality, except cancer. Intake of more than two drinks per day was associated with an increased risk of total, cardiovascular and especially cancer mortality.
