Understanding the Immune System's Role in Disease Progression
The immune system is crucial for understanding how diseases progress in individual patients. By analyzing immune responses, particularly in the context of COVID-19, researchers were able to predict which patients might require intensive care based on specific components of their immune response. This insight showcases the potential of immune profiling to inform treatment decisions and risk stratification across various health conditions. As it turns out, the immune system plays a fundamental role in many aspects of health beyond infectious diseases, including cancer prevention and metabolic regulation.
