Abstract: Methods of treating with radiation therapy a subject having cancer, in which the method comprises administering radiation therapy to the subject. The subject does not have an increased risk of having an adverse reaction to radiation therapy. The subject has an increased risk of an adverse reaction to radiation therapy when the subject's level of each component in a component profile from a sample of the subject is altered as compared to the normal level of each component. The component profile may comprise a metabolite panel of geranyl pyrophosphate, glucose-1-phosphate, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA; a lipid panel of LPA 18:0, LPA 16:0, LPC 20:2, CER 24:0, and LPI 16:1; or a combination of these panels. The component profile may also comprise a metabolite panel of metanephrine, tryptophan, xanthurenic acid, and pantothenate; a lipid panel of LPA 18:0, DAG 16:0/18:0, LPA 16:0, and DAG 18:1/18:1; or a combination of these panels.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment. The methods comprise analyzing at least one plasma sample from the subject to determine a value of the subject's proteomic profile and comparing the value of the subject's proteomic profile with the value of a normal proteomic profile. A change in the value of the subject's proteomic profile, over normal values is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment compared to a normal individual.

Abstract: Methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of poor recovery after suffering a stroke and methods of treating a subject recovering from a stroke. The methods comprise analyzing at least one plasma sample taken from the subject to assess a microRNA (miRNA) profile of the subject and comparing the subject's miRNA profile with a normal miRNA profile, to determine if the subject's miRNA profile is altered compared to a normal miRNA profile. An alteration of the subject's miRNA profile is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of poor recovery after suffering a stroke.
