Paradigm change from late interventional approach to predictive diagnostics followed by targeted prevention before manifest pathology, presents innovative concept for advanced healthcare. Preselection of healthy but pathology-predisposed individuals is the primary task in the overall action. Vasospasm is a frequent syndrome defined as an inappropriate constriction or insufficient dilatation in microcirculation. Vasospastic individuals are considered as healthy subpopulation predisposed to several pathologies including neurodegeneration. Clinical observations, subcellular imaging and "gene hunting"-investigations provide evidence for vasospasm as predisposition to glaucoma; development of further related pathologies cannot be excluded. Predictive molecular-profiling in blood can specify individual predisposition for effective prevention.
从晚期介入方法到预测性诊断的范式转变,随后在明显的病理之前进行有针对性的预防,为先进的医疗保健提供了创新的概念。对健康但有病理倾向的个体进行预选是整体行动的首要任务。血管痉挛是一种常见的综合征,定义为微循环中的不适当收缩或不足扩张。血管痉挛个体被认为是健康的亚群,易患多种疾病,包括神经退行性变。临床观察、亚细胞成像和“基因搜索”研究为血管痉挛作为青光眼易感性提供了证据;不能排除进一步相关病理的发展。血液中的预测性分子分析可以确定个体的易感性,从而进行有效的预防。
