Diagnósticos, prótesis, vacunas, genómica: la medicina que gana años de vida.
La medicina que gana años de vida: cribados asistidos por IA que examinan a millones de pacientes, vacunas de nueva generación, una genómica que pasa de la secuenciación al tratamiento, prótesis e implantes que devuelven capacidades perdidas. La sección sigue los ensayos clínicos concluidos, las autorizaciones de comercialización, los despliegues hospitalarios — el momento en que una tecnología deja de ser una publicación para convertirse en un cuidado.
Las cifras mandan: cohortes, tasas de detección, mortalidad evitada, costes. Cubrimos con gusto los sistemas de salud que despliegan a gran escala —India, Brasil, el Sudeste Asiático— porque las tecnologías frugales suelen probarse allí antes de llegar a otros lugares. Cada artículo se apoya en el ensayo, la autorización o el estudio que lo funda, y los cita.
