UNASSIGNED: Cancer cell growth, metastasis, and drug resistance are major challenges in treating liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). However, the lack of comprehensive and reliable models hamper the effectiveness of the predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM) strategy in managing LIHC.
UNASSIGNED: Leveraging seven distinct patterns of mitochondrial cell death (MCD), we conducted a multi-omic screening of MCD-related genes. A novel machine learning framework was developed, integrating 10 machine learning algorithms with 67 different combinations to establish a consensus mitochondrial cell death index (MCDI). This index underwent rigorous evaluation across training, validation, and in-house clinical cohorts. A comprehensive multi-omics analysis encompassing bulk, single-cell, and spatial transcriptomics was employed to achieve a deeper insight into the constructed signature. The response of risk subgroups to immunotherapy and targeted therapy was evaluated and validated. RT-qPCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemical staining were utilized for findings validation.
UNASSIGNED: Nine critical differentially expressed MCD-related genes were identified in LIHC. A consensus MCDI was constructed based on a 67-combination machine learning computational framework, demonstrating outstanding performance in predicting prognosis and clinical translation. MCDI correlated with immune infiltration, Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE) score and sorafenib sensitivity. Findings were validated experimentally. Moreover, we identified PAK1IP1 as the most important gene for predicting LIHC prognosis and validated its potential as an indicator of prognosis and sorafenib response in our in-house clinical cohorts.
UNASSIGNED: This study developed a novel predictive model for LIHC, namely MCDI. Incorporating MCDI into the PPPM framework will enhance clinical decision-making processes and optimize individualized treatment strategies for LIHC patients.

Energy metabolism is a hub of governing all processes at cellular and organismal levels such as, on one hand, reparable vs. irreparable cell damage, cell fate (proliferation, survival, apoptosis, malignant transformation etc.), and, on the other hand, carcinogenesis, tumor development, progression and metastazing versus anti-cancer protection and cure. The orchestrator is the mitochondria who produce, store and invest energy, conduct intracellular and systemically relevant signals decisive for internal and environmental stress adaptation, and coordinate corresponding processes at cellular and organismal levels. Consequently, the quality of mitochondrial health and homeostasis is a reliable target for health risk assessment at the stage of reversible damage to the health followed by cost-effective personalized protection against health-to-disease transition as well as for targeted protection against the disease progression (secondary care of cancer patients against growing primary tumors and metastatic disease). The energy reprogramming of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) attracts particular attention as clinically relevant and instrumental for the paradigm change from reactive medical services to predictive, preventive and personalized medicine (3PM). This article provides a detailed overview towards mechanisms and biological pathways involving metabolic reprogramming (MR) with respect to inhibiting the synthesis of biomolecules and blocking common NSCLC metabolic pathways as anti-NSCLC therapeutic strategies. For instance, mitophagy recycles macromolecules to yield mitochondrial substrates for energy homeostasis and nucleotide synthesis. Histone modification and DNA methylation can predict the onset of diseases, and plasma C7 analysis is an efficient medical service potentially resulting in an optimized healthcare economy in corresponding areas. The MEMP scoring provides the guidance for immunotherapy, prognostic assessment, and anti-cancer drug development. Metabolite sensing mechanisms of nutrients and their derivatives are potential MR-related therapy in NSCLC. Moreover, miR-495-3p reprogramming of sphingolipid rheostat by targeting Sphk1, 22/FOXM1 axis regulation, and A2 receptor antagonist are highly promising therapy strategies. TFEB as a biomarker in predicting immune checkpoint blockade and redox-related lncRNA prognostic signature (redox-LPS) are considered reliable predictive approaches. Finally, exemplified in this article metabolic phenotyping is instrumental for innovative population screening, health risk assessment, predictive multi-level diagnostics, targeted prevention, and treatment algorithms tailored to personalized patient profiles-all are essential pillars in the paradigm change from reactive medical services to 3PM approach in overall management of lung cancers. This article highlights the 3PM relevant innovation focused on energy metabolism as the hub to advance NSCLC management benefiting vulnerable subpopulations, affected patients, and healthcare at large.

UNASSIGNED: Suboptimal health is identified as a reversible phase occurring before chronic diseases manifest, emphasizing the significance of early detection and intervention in predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM). While the biological and genetic factors associated with suboptimal health have received considerable attention, the influence of social determinants of health (SDH) remains relatively understudied. By comprehensively understanding the SDH influencing suboptimal health, healthcare providers can tailor interventions to address individual needs, improving health outcomes and facilitating the transition to optimal well-being. This study aimed to identify distinct profiles within SDH indicators and examine their association with suboptimal health status.
UNASSIGNED: This cross-sectional study was conducted from June 16 to September 23, 2023, in five regions of China. Various SDH indicators, such as family health, economic status, eHealth literacy, mental disorder, social support, health behavior, and sleep quality, were examined in this study. Latent profile analysis was employed to identify distinct profiles based on these SDH indicators. Logistic regression analysis by profile was used to investigate the association between these profiles and suboptimal health status.
UNASSIGNED: The analysis included 4918 individuals. Latent profile analysis revealed three distinct profiles (prevalence): the Adversely Burdened Vulnerability Group (37.6%), the Adversity-Driven Struggle Group (11.7%), and the Advantaged Resilience Group (50.7%). These profiles exhibited significant differences in suboptimal health status (p < 0.001). The Adversely Burdened Vulnerability Group had the highest risk of suboptimal health, followed by the Adversity-Driven Struggle Group, while the Advantaged Resilience Group had the lowest risk.
UNASSIGNED: Distinct profiles based on SDH indicators are associated with suboptimal health status. Healthcare providers should integrate SDH assessment into routine clinical practice to customize interventions and address specific needs. This study reveals that the group with the highest risk of suboptimal health stands out as the youngest among all the groups, underscoring the critical importance of early intervention and targeted prevention strategies within the framework of 3PM. Tailored interventions for the Adversely Burdened Vulnerability Group should focus on economic opportunities, healthcare access, healthy food options, and social support. Leveraging their higher eHealth literacy and resourcefulness, interventions empower the Adversity-Driven Struggle Group. By addressing healthcare utilization, substance use, and social support, targeted interventions effectively reduce suboptimal health risks and improve well-being in vulnerable populations.

Despite their subordination in humans, to a great extent, mitochondria maintain their independent status but tightly cooperate with the \"host\" on protecting the joint life quality and minimizing health risks. Under oxidative stress conditions, healthy mitochondria promptly increase mitophagy level to remove damaged \"fellows\" rejuvenating the mitochondrial population and sending fragments of mtDNA as SOS signals to all systems in the human body. As long as metabolic pathways are under systemic control and well-concerted together, adaptive mechanisms become triggered increasing systemic protection, activating antioxidant defense and repair machinery. Contextually, all attributes of mitochondrial patho-/physiology are instrumental for predictive medical approach and cost-effective treatments tailored to individualized patient profiles in primary (to protect vulnerable individuals again the health-to-disease transition) and secondary (to protect affected individuals again disease progression) care. Nutraceuticals are naturally occurring bioactive compounds demonstrating health-promoting, illness-preventing, and other health-related benefits. Keeping in mind health-promoting properties of nutraceuticals along with their great therapeutic potential and safety profile, there is a permanently growing demand on the application of mitochondria-relevant nutraceuticals. Application of nutraceuticals is beneficial only if meeting needs at individual level. Therefore, health risk assessment and creation of individualized patient profiles are of pivotal importance followed by adapted nutraceutical sets meeting individual needs. Based on the scientific evidence available for mitochondria-relevant nutraceuticals, this article presents examples of frequent medical conditions, which require protective measures targeted on mitochondria as a holistic approach following advanced concepts of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM) in primary and secondary care.

In times where sudden-onset disasters (SODs) present challenges to global health systems, the integration of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM / 3PM) into emergency medical responses has manifested as a critical necessity. We introduce a modern electronic patient record system designed specifically for emergency medical teams (EMTs), which will serve as a novel approach in how digital healthcare management can be optimized in crisis situations. This research is based on the principle that advanced information technology (IT) systems are key to transforming humanitarian aid by offering predictive insights, preventive strategies, and personalized care in disaster scenarios. We aim to address the critical gaps in current emergency medical response strategies, particularly in the context of SODs. Building upon a collaborative effort with European emergency medical teams, we have developed a comprehensive and scalable electronic patient record system. It not only enhances patient management during emergencies but also enables predictive analytics to anticipate patient needs, preventive guidelines to reduce the impact of potential health threats, and personalized treatment plans for the individual needs of patients. Furthermore, our study examines the possibilities of adopting PPPM-oriented IT solutions in disaster relief. By integrating predictive models for patient triage, preventive measures to mitigate health risks, and personalized care protocols, potential improvements to patient health or work efficiency could be established. This system was evaluated with clinical experts and shall be used to establish digital solutions and new forms of assistance for humanitarian aid in the future. In conclusion, to really achieve PPPM-related efforts more investment will need to be put into research and development of electronic patient records as the foundation as well as into the clinical processes along all pathways of stakeholders in disaster medicine.

UNASSIGNED: The reciprocal promotion of cancer and stroke occurs due to changes in shared risk factors, such as metabolic pathways and molecular targets, creating a \"vicious cycle.\" Cancer plays a direct or indirect role in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke (IS), along with the reactive medical approach used in the treatment and clinical management of IS patients, resulting in clinical challenges associated with occult cancer in these patients. The lack of reliable and simple tools hinders the effectiveness of the predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM) approach. Therefore, we conducted a multicenter study that focused on multiparametric analysis to facilitate early diagnosis of occult cancer and personalized treatment for stroke associated with cancer.
UNASSIGNED: Admission routine clinical examination indicators of IS patients were retrospectively collated from the electronic medical records. The training dataset comprised 136 IS patients with concurrent cancer, matched at a 1:1 ratio with a control group. The risk of occult cancer in IS patients was assessed through logistic regression and five alternative machine-learning models. Subsequently, select the model with the highest predictive efficacy to create a nomogram, which is a quantitative tool for predicting diagnosis in clinical practice. Internal validation employed a ten-fold cross-validation, while external validation involved 239 IS patients from six centers. Validation encompassed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, decision curve analysis (DCA), and comparison with models from prior research.
UNASSIGNED: The ultimate prediction model was based on logistic regression and incorporated the following variables: regions of ischemic lesions, multiple vascular territories, hypertension, D-dimer, fibrinogen (FIB), and hemoglobin (Hb). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for the nomogram was 0.871 in the training dataset and 0.834 in the external test dataset. Both calibration curves and DCA underscored the nomogram\'s strong performance.
UNASSIGNED: The nomogram enables early occult cancer diagnosis in hospitalized IS patients and helps to accurately identify the cause of IS, while the promotion of IS stratification makes personalized treatment feasible. The online nomogram based on routine clinical examination indicators of IS patients offered a cost-effective platform for secondary care in the framework of PPPM.

Multidisciplinary team from three universities based in the \"Centro\" Region of Portugal developed diverse approaches as parts of a project dedicated to enhancing and expanding Predictive, Preventive, and Personalized Medicine (3PM) in the Region. In a sense, outcomes acted as a proof-of-concept, in that they demonstrated the feasibility, but also the relevance of the approaches. The accomplishments comprise defining a new regional strategy for implementing 3PM within the Region, training of human resources in genomic sequencing, and generating good practices handbooks dedicated to diagnostic testing via next-generation sequencing, to legal and ethical concerns, and to knowledge transfer and entrepreneurship, aimed at increasing literacy on 3PM approaches. Further approaches also included support for entrepreneurship development and start-ups, and diverse and relevant initiatives aimed at increasing literacy relevant to 3PM. Efforts to enhance literacy encompassed citizens across the board, from patients and high school students to health professionals and health students. This focus on empowerment through literacy involved a variety of initiatives, including the creation of an illustrated book on genomics and the production of two theater plays centered on genetics. Additionally, authors stressed that genomic tools are relevant, but they are not the only resources 3PM is based on. Thus, they defend that other initiatives intended to enable citizens to take 3PM should include multi-omics and, having in mind the socio-economic burden of chronic diseases, suboptimal health status approaches in the 3PM framework should also be considered, in order to anticipate medical intervention in the subclinical phase.

UNASSIGNED: Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare endocrine-associated tumor with unique characteristics of intravascular invasion. This study aimed to identify reliable biomarkers to supervise the development or recurrence of IVL in the context of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM).
UNASSIGNED: A total of 60 cases were recruited to detect differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in serum samples from IVL patients. These cases included those with recurrent IVL, non-recurrent IVL, uterine myoma, and healthy individuals without uterine myoma, with 15 cases in each category. Then, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), lasso-penalized Cox regression analysis (Lasso), trend clustering, and a generalized linear regression model (GLM) were utilized to screen the hub proteins involved in IVL progression.
UNASSIGNED: First, 93 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were determined from 2582 recognizable proteins, with 54 proteins augmented in the IVL group, and the remaining proteins declined. These proteins were enriched in the modulation of the immune environment, mainly by activating the function of B cells. After the integrated analyses mentioned above, a model based on four proteins (A0A5C2FUE5, A0A5C2GPQ1, A0A5C2GNC7, and A0A5C2GBR3) was developed to efficiently determine the potential of IVL lesions to progress. Among these featured proteins, our results demonstrated that the risk factor A0A5C2FUE5 was associated with IVL progression (OR = 2.64). Conversely, A0A5C2GPQ1, A0A5C2GNC7, and A0A5C2GBR3 might act in a protective manner and prevent disease development (OR = 0.32, 0.60, 0.53, respectively), which was further supported by the multi-class receiver operator characteristic curve analysis.
UNASSIGNED: Four hub proteins were eventually identified based on the integrated bioinformatics analyses. This study potentiates the promising application of these novel biomarkers to predict the prognosis or progression of IVL by a 3PM approach.

UNASSIGNED: Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is still one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness, with a trend towards an increase in the number of patients to 32.04 million by 2040, an increase of 58.4% compared with 2013. Health risk assessment based on multi-level diagnostics and machine learning-couched treatment algorithms tailored to individualized profile of patients with primary anterior chamber angle closure are considered essential tools to reverse the trend and protect vulnerable subpopulations against health-to-disease progression.
UNASSIGNED: To develop a methodology for personalized choice of an effective method of primary angle closure (PAC) treatment based on comparing the prognosis of intraocular pressure (IOP) changes due to laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) or lens extraction (LE).
UNASSIGNED: The multi-parametric data analysis was used to develop models predicting individual outcomes of the primary angle closure (PAC) treatment with LPI and LE. For doing this, we suggested a positive dynamics in the intraocular pressure (IOP) after treatment, as the objective measure of a successful treatment. Thirty-seven anatomical parameters have been considered by applying artificial intelligence to the prospective study on 30 (LE) + 30 (LPI) patients with PAC.
UNASSIGNED: Based on the anatomical and topographic features of the patients with PAC, mathematical models have been developed that provide a personalized choice of LE or LPI in the treatment. Multi-level diagnostics is the key tool in the overall advanced approach. To this end, for the future application of AI in the area, it is strongly recommended to consider the following:Clinically relevant phenotyping applicable to advanced population screeningSystemic effects causing suboptimal health conditions considered in order to cost-effectively protect affected individuals against health-to-disease transitionClinically relevant health risk assessment utilizing health/disease-specific molecular patterns detectable in body fluids with high predictive power such as a comprehensive tear fluid analysis.

UNASSIGNED: Whether cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics impact longevity with and without cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has not been well established. This study aimed to investigate the association between CVH metrics and life expectancy in participants free of CVD events. We hypothesized that ideal CVH status was associated with increased life expectancy and assessed the effect of CVH status as a prevention target of longevity in the framework of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM).
UNASSIGNED: A total of 92,795 participants in the Kailuan study were examined and thereafter followed up until 2020. We considered three transitions (from non-CVD events to incident CVD events, from non-CVD events to mortality, and from CVD events to mortality). The multistate lifetable method was applied to estimate the life expectancy.
UNASSIGNED: During a median follow-up of 13 years, 12,541 (13.51%) deaths occurred. Compared with poor CVH, ideal CVH attenuated the risk of incident CVD events and mortality without CVD events by approximately 58% and 27%, respectively. Women with ideal CVH at age 35 had a 5.00 (3.23-6.77) year longer life expectancy free of CVD events than did women with poor CVH metrics. Among men, ideal CVH was associated with a 6.74 (5.55-7.93) year longer life expectancy free of CVD events.
UNASSIGNED: An ideal CVH status is associated with a lower risk of premature mortality and a longer life expectancy, either in the general population or in CVD patients, which are cost-effective ways for personalized medicine of potential CVD patients. Our findings suggest that the promotion of a higher CVH score or ideal CVH status would result in reduced burdens of CVD events and extended disease-free life expectancy, which offered an accurate prediction for primary care following the concept of PPPM/3PM.
