Abstract: Methods for ascertaining a dehydration or hydration level in a subject are described. The methods comprise determining the concentration of a salivary indicator and, in some embodiments, assigning a hydration or dehydration level based on the salivary indicator concentration after mathematical transformation of the value and with regard to previously-determined, transformed baseline values or with regard to a correlation.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of do terming the likelihood of a sudden cardiac event, such as an arrythmia, in a subject. Also disclosed is a method of determining whether a subject is at risk of a sudden cardiac event arid whether the subject would benefit from a treatment such as implantation of an ICD.

Abstract: Biomarkers useful for diagnosing and assessing the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) are provided, along with kits for measuring their expression. The invention also provides predictive models, based on the biomarkers, as well as computer systems, and software embodiments of the models for scoring and optionally classifying samples. In a preferred embodiment, the biomarkers are organized into clustered groups. The expression level of the biomarkers within a group are highly correlated to each other in normal and disease states. Expression values of genes chosen from each of two, three, four or five of the clustered gene groups, A, B, C, D, E may be used. Alternatively, expression values of genes chosen from the groups are combined into a metagene.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the elucidation of the global changes in gene expression and the identification of toxicity markers in tissues or cells exposed to a known toxin. The genes may be used as toxicity markers in drug screening and toxicity assays. The invention includes a database of genes characterized by toxin-induced differential expression that is designed for use with microarrays and other solid-phase probes.

Abstract: Methods for classification of biological data including the use of mathematically based classification models are disclosed. In preferred embodiments, gene expression data derived from biological studies is used to classify events. The methods use a version of a linear discriminate model for deriving markers according to a technique whereby the model is limited to scoring the predictive ability of genes without making assumptions about inter-gene relationships, relative magnitudes or redundant information. In an associated method for building a fully informative database of biological information, biological studies are performed on a continual basis and linear discriminate models are used to provide rapid and efficient updates to gene markers.
