Operationalizing Precision Cardiovascular Medicine

چکیده
For precision medicine to become a reality, we propose 3 changes. First, healthcare deliverables must be prioritized, enabling translation of knowledge to the clinic. Second, physicians and patients must be convinced to participate, requiring additional infrastructure in health systems. Third, discovery science must evolve to shift the preclinical landscape for innovation. We propose a change in the fundamental relationship between basic and clinical science: rather than 2 distinct entities between which concepts must be translated, we envision a natural hybrid of these approaches, wherein discovery science and clinical trials coincide in the same health systems and patient populations.

متن کاملA Strategy for Genomic Research on Common Cardiovascular Diseases Aiming at the Realization of Precision Medicine
Despite the development of genomic research on common cardiovascular diseases, genetic variants and/or loci shown to be disease associated have been seldom applied to risk prediction in a clinical setting, although they could provide us with novel mechanistic insights into the pathophysiology and potential therapeutic targets. Here, we discuss the significance and limitations of the up-todate g...

In the era of precision medicine, accurately identifying familial conditions is crucial for providing target treatment. However, it is challenging to identify familial conditions without detailed family history information. In this work, we studied the documentation of family history of premature cardiovascular disease and hypercholesterolemia. The information on patients' family history of str...
