Ms. Sally Davis, the UK's chief medical officer, recently released an annual report with the goal of recommending DNA sequencing for each cancer patient to prevent misdiagnosis, unnecessary repeated diagnosis and ineffective chemotherapy.
Currently, more than 350,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with cancer each year, and about 163,000 people die each year. Sally said that it is time to end the "diagnostic malignancy", and these patients generally have to consult more than 5 doctors, and wait an average of 4 years before the diagnosis.
Now, with a little blood or saliva for DNA testing, you can correctly determine the disease and identify specific genetic mutations that play an important role in successful treatment. The British "Daily Telegraph" has comprehensively interpreted this "landmark" report.
Comprehensive genetic screening in 5 years
There are currently 25 small laboratories in the UK, and each genetic test costs around £600. The new report shows that this cost can be greatly reduced.
Sally suggested that in the next three to five years, the UK National Health Service (NHS) should establish a centralized laboratory to handle large-scale DNA testing, and soon patients will see genetic screening as a normal treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning methods are generally accepted and adopted.
“The NHS must act to maintain its leading position in global science.†While Sally promoted the leading position in precision medicine in the UK, Sally emphasized that “ precise medicine based on DNA sequencing may change the status of drugs forever.â€
Actively embrace the arrival of precision medicine
Precision Medicine is a new medical concept and medical model based on personalized medicine, with the rapid advancement of genome sequencing technology and the cross-application of bioinformatics and big data science. Its essence is to analyze and identify, validate and apply biomarkers for large sample populations and specific disease types through genomics, proteomics and other omics techniques and medical frontier technologies, so as to accurately find the cause of the disease and the target of treatment. And accurately classify the different states and processes of a disease, and finally achieve the purpose of personalized and precise treatment for diseases and specific patients, and improve the effectiveness of disease diagnosis and treatment.
Now, all NHS staff, patients and the public need to know about precision medicine and embrace its enormous potential.
Rhodium powder Rh≥99.95% Properties: silver-white metal, extremely hard, wear-resistant, also has considerable ductility Application: It can be used as raw material for electrical instrumentation, chemical industry and manufacture of precision alloys. Rhodium powder is based on the widespread use of ruthenium in the industrial industry. Since rhodium is a rare metal required by the industry, the industry price is slightly higher than that of general non-ferrous metals. Rhodium, one of the rare elements, has various uses. Rhodium can be used to make hydrogenation catalysts, thermocouples, platinum-rhodium alloys, etc. It is also often plated on searchlights and reflectors, and is also used as a polishing agent for gemstones. and electrical contact parts.
