London Breakthrough: British Scientists Unveil Game-Changing Blood Test for Predicting Diseases Eight Years in Advance.

"Duke University Study Reveals Advanced Blood Test Predicting Osteoarthritis Development 8 Years Prior"
Osteoarthritis, commonly identified through X-rays due to joint pain, can now be predicted up to eight years earlier with biomarker tests, according to researchers. This acute and chronic joint pain, predominantly associated with the elderly, can also afflict younger individuals for various reasons.
As reported in a medical journal, health experts conducted a decade-long study involving dozens of volunteers aged between 45 and 65, with a majority being women. The study included (BMI) tests as well.

Tests were initially administered within the first two years of the study's commencement, with subsequent evaluations conducted six years later, followed by disease reassessment in the subjects.
Experts observed elevated levels of chemicals in cartilage, synovium, and peptides in the blood serum of individuals predisposed to osteoarthritis.
Comparing blood tests for these three chemicals with X-rays and BMI tests eight years later, experts found that volunteers exhibiting abnormalities in the blood tests were diagnosed with osteoarthritis.
