Healthcare Data for Achieving a More Personalized Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease.
Francisco Herrera-GómezFrancisco Javier ÁlvarezPublished in: Biomedicines (2021)
The current concept of healthcare incites a more personalized treatment of diseases. To this aim, biomarkers are needed to improve decision-making facing chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Prognostic markers provided by real-world (observational) evidence are proposed in this Special Issue entitled "Biomarkers in Chronic Kidney Disease", with the intention to identify high-risk patients. These markers do not target measurable parameters in patients but clinical endpoints that may be in turn transformed to benefits under the effect of future interventions.
