Routine haematological markers can predict and discriminate health status and biological age even from noisy sources (2303.01444v9)

Published 2 Mar 2023 in q-bio.QM

Abstract: For more than two decades, advances in personalised medicine and precision healthcare have largely been based on genomics and other omics data. These strategies aim to tailor interventions to individual patient profiles, promising greater treatment efficacy and more efficient allocation of healthcare resources. Here, we show that widely collected common haematologic markers can reliably predict and discriminate individual chronological age and health status from even noisy sources. Our analysis includes synthetic and real retrospective patient data, including medically relevant and extreme cases, and draws on more than 100\,000 complete blood count records over 13 years from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (CDC NHANES). We combine fully explainable risk assessment scores with machine and deep learning techniques to focus on clinically significant patterns and characteristics without functioning purely as a ''black-box model allowing interpretation and control. We validated the results with the UK Biobank, a larger cohort independent of the CDC NHANES and with very different collection techniques, the former a survey and the second a longitudinal study. Unlike current biological ageing indicators, this approach may offer rapid, and scalable implementations of personalised, precision and predictive approaches to healthcare and medicine without or before requiring other specialised, uncommon or costly tests.
