Genetic Screens

5.9K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.5K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Next-generation Sequencing

102.3K
The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.
Next-Generation Sequencing Methods
Although all next-generation methods use different technologies, they all share a set of standard features....

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Health Economics
  • Bioethics

Background:

  • Limited healthcare budgets necessitate prioritization of newly available genetic tests.
  • Existing benefit-maximizing frameworks for genetic services face criticism regarding fairness and equitable need-based claims.
  • The European Society of Human Genetics seeks fair methods for prioritizing genetic services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a prioritization score for genetic tests to facilitate equitable allocation based on need-based claims.
  • To address the limitations of current frameworks by incorporating fairness and medical need.
  • To provide a structured approach for decision-making in genetic service allocation.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a prioritization score incorporating attributes of health need (severity, progression), service suitability (benefit evidence, result likelihood), and costs.
  • A case study demonstrating the measurement of these attributes.
  • Quantification of need-based claims within a priority function, with potential for attribute weight determination via discrete-choice experiments.

Main Results:

  • A novel prioritization score framework for genetic tests has been developed.
  • The framework integrates health need, service efficacy, and cost considerations.
  • Methodology for quantifying need-based claims and determining attribute weights is proposed.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed prioritization score offers a structured approach for equitable allocation of genetic tests.
  • Further research is required to measure attributes across diverse genetic tests and establish appropriate weights.
  • The score's acceptability hinges on procedural fairness in its development and interpretation as a "strength of recommendation" rather than a rigid cutoff.
