As one looks into the crystal ball concerning the future of medicine, what might be seen? One vision is of genetic testing being carried out by medical technicians and then, as a result of this analysis, patients will be given a diagnosis of what is wrong with them. Next, they will be given a list of courses of action based on the tests.

Metabolomics in genetic testing
2020Metabolomics is an intriguing field of study providing a new readout of the biochemical activities taking place at the moment of sampling within a subject's biofluid or tissue. Metabolite concentrations are influenced by several factors including disease, environment, drugs, diet and, importantly, genetics.

Genetics and genetic testing for glaucoma
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2017In recent decades, investigators have identified numerous genes and genetic factors that cause or contribute risk for glaucoma. These findings have increased our understanding of disease mechanisms, provided us with new diagnostic tools, and may allow for development of improved therapies for glaucoma. However, genetic testing is most useful when it is

New research developments in the molecular genetics of cancer have led to the feasibility of cancer genetic testing. At present, genetic test results can better inform individuals at risk about appropriately tailored strategies for cancer screening and prevention. In the future, more persons will be eligible for genetic evaluation; in particular, if it

Genes have become the preferred way to explain all types of ill health and unwanted behavior. Some of the attributions seem fairly clear-cut, but many are being embraced uncritically and oversold.

Preimplantation genetic testing
BMJ, 2012#### Summary points Preimplantation genetic (PG) testing is the practice of obtaining a cellular biopsy sample from a developing human oocyte or embryo, acquired via a cycle of in vitro fertilisation (IVF); evaluating the genetic composition of this sample; and using this information to determine which embryos will be optimal for subsequent uterine ...

The ArgumentPressures to lower health-care costs remain an important stimulus to eugenic approaches. Prenatal diagnosis followed by abortion of affected fetuses has replaced sterilization as the major eugenic technique. Voluntary acceptance has replaced coercion, but subtle pressures undermine personal autonomy.
