Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Air pollution exposure is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the underlying mechanisms, especially the complex gene-environment interactions as reflected in genetic susceptibility, transcriptomic, and proteomic signatures, remain to be elucidated. METHODS: We conducted a large-scale prospective cohort study including 330,002 UK Biobank participants with an...
