  • Publication number: 20240395371
    Abstract: A method (100) and a system for management of medical care resources are provided. The method comprises the steps of collecting (110) statistical information (120) associated with screening tests (130) for a disease, wherein the statistical information is associated with at least one classification (150) of an individual of a group of individuals, defining (160) a group of persons having an estimated need for one of the screening tests according to the classification, establishing (170) a first level of availability of the at least one treatment resource, selecting (180) a screening test to be used for the defined group of persons based on the statistical information under a boundary condition that the average of the estimated need of the at least one treatment resource is not allowed to exceed the first level of availability of the at least one treatment resource.

  • Publication number: 20200010912
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the detection and identification of various forms of genetic markers, and various forms of proteins, which have the potential utility as diagnostic markers. By determining the level of a plurality of biomarkers and genetic markers in a patient sample, and combining the obtained values according to a predefined formula, it is possible to forecast if it is likely that the prostate cancer patient will require active therapy like radiation therapy or surgery. A method based on a redundantly designed combination of data is disclosed for estimating if prostate cancer is aggressive or indolent. Said method combines SNP data to form a composite value, wherein at least 5% of the SNPs can be disregarded.

  • Patent number: 10431326
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the detection and identification of various forms of genetic markers, and various forms of proteins, which have the potential utility as diagnostic markers. By determining the level of a plurality of biomarkers and genetic markers in a patient sample, and combining the obtained values according to a predefined formula, it is possible to determine if it is likely that the patient suffers from aggressive prostate cancer. The present invention is particularly applicable only for patients having a body mass index value greater than 25.
