Predictive models for complex diseases

The Non Communicable Complex Disease (NCCD) are the leading causes of death in the world, causing more deaths each year than all other combined causes. The approximately 80% of deaths were caused by NCCD and occured in low and middle income countries. However, NCCD deaths could be avoided by prevent...

Las Enfermedades Complejas No Transmisibles (ECNT) son las principales causas de muerte en el mundo, produciendo más muertes cada año que todas las otras causas combinadas. De acuerdo a los datos disponibles aproximadamente el 80% de las muertes por ECNT se producen en países de bajos y medianos ingresos. Sin embargo, las muertes causadas por ECNT podrían evitarse si se implementaran programas de prevención y diagnóstico temprano. El desafío que representan los fenotipos multifactoriales es lograr una estrategia válida de identificación de individuos de riesgo en la población. Estas estrategias pueden estar orientadas al monitoreo poblacional o a la generación de modelos predictivos causales para detección temprana, interpretando las causas primordiales que generan la patología. El objetivo de este trabajo es describir las caracterísitcas de las enfermedades crónicas complejas y algunos de los métodos actuales de estudio de éstas en el área de la salud. Conclusiones. El trabajo interdisciplinario, de un equipo de profesionales de la salud pertenecientes a diversas áreas permite un adecuado abordaje de las patologías complejas. La aplicación de modelos como los gráficos de causalidad resulta una herramienta invalorable para lograr un adecuado ajuste del modelo estadístico, permitiendo introducir todos los componentes que intervienen en la dinámica salud-enfermedad. Y la mejor estrategia metodológica para las enfermedades complejas es el diagnóstico temprano y el monitoreo de grupos de riesgo y el seguimiento de terapias de pacientes diagnosticados.
