Despite the formidable challenges for developing precision psychiatry, the approach is notching its first successes in the preclinical and even some clinical settings. Many individual studies as well as large projects like the Psychiatric Ratings using Intermediate Markers studies and the Psychiatric Biomarkers Network have been looking at multiple biomarker types, and have begun to identify predictors of specific symptoms, or disease progression.

Psychiatry has struggled to enter the precision medicine era. But through a mix of innovations and bootstrapping, progress is coming to the field. Scientists are working on improving diagnoses by investigating potential biomarkers and collection methods.

Esophageal cancer is among the most lethal cancers with a high mortality rate worldwide. Chinese researchers have explored the potential link between long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1354 (LINC01354) and esophageal cancer.
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is the most prevalent acquired valve heart disorder in aging populations. Its most severe form in aortic valve stenosis (AVS), with an average survival of 2-3 years once symptoms appear. The early diagnosis of AVS based on circulating biomarkers is crucial to label high-risk patients before they progress to the severe form.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a life-threatening cardiovascular disease characterized by chronic inflammation and irreversible dilatation of the abdominal aorta and is asymptomatic at the early stages of the disease, with diagnosis usually relying on imaging techniques and surgery being the main approach for treating it.
Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) accounts for about 2% of all cancers and 1.9% of cancer-related deaths globally. OSCC is characterized by local invasiveness and lymph node metastatic ability, making it a very malignant cancer.
