Le King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre annonce un service de séquençage rapide du génome entier

RIYAD, Arabie saoudite, 31 oct. 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Dans le cadre d’un développement révolutionnaire pour le Moyen-Orient, le King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC) a introduit un service appelé séquençage rapide du génome entier (rWGS) dans le cadre de ses solutions de soins de santé. Ce service est destiné à aider les médecins à diagnostiquer les maladies rares et génétiques, en particulier chez les nouveau-nés gravement malades, nécessitant une identification rapide et précise de leur état.

Le service de séquençage rapide du génome entier est inestimable pour les nouveau-nés atteints de maladies rares, car il leur permet d’éviter le processus souvent chronophage des tests et des traitements qui peuvent s’étendre sur des mois, voire des années, sans diagnostic précis. Cela permet d’augmenter les chances de survie et de réduire le coût global des soins de santé en diminuant les admissions à l’hôpital ainsi que les examens et soins médicaux inutiles.

Fait remarquable, l’hôpital a réduit la durée nécessaire à ces examens génétiques, qui est habituellement de deux mois, à moins de 35 heures. Le temps de réponse est primordial lorsqu’il s’agit de planifier les soins de santé pour des nouveau-nés gravement malades, et la communication rapide des résultats des examens garantit une réponse médicale prompte et adaptée, évitant ainsi des retards qui pourraient entraîner une aggravation de l’état du patient, voire son décès.

Dans le cadre de sa participation au Global Health Summit, où le KFSH&RC joue un rôle essentiel en tant que partenaire stratégique dans le domaine des soins de santé, l’hôpital fournit des détails sur le service de séquençage rapide du génome entier à son stand d’exposition. Les capacités de pointe de l’hôpital comprennent l’analyse de 99 % des séquences d’ADN à partir d’échantillons sanguins de patients, ainsi que plusieurs solutions de soins de santé innovantes.

L’examen complet de la composition génétique comprend un processus rationalisé en quatre étapes. Tout d’abord, l’ADN est décomposé en segments gérables. Ensuite, il est codé avec un symbole semblable à un code-barres pour une identification facile, comme pour le suivi des produits dans un magasin. L’examen proprement dit est effectué à l’aide d’un équipement spécialisé. Enfin, des systèmes informatiques et des logiciels avancés comparent ces séquences, identifiant les différences dans les séquences d’ADN et localisant les mutations génétiques responsables des maladies.

Le KFSH&RC offre le plus haut niveau de soins de santé et la meilleure expérience possible aux patients dans un environnement intégré d’enseignement et de recherche. Il collabore et partage son expertise avec des institutions locales, régionales et internationales de premier plan afin de fournir un service compétitif au niveau mondial dans les domaines clinique, de la recherche et de l’enseignement.

Reconnu mondialement pour ses soins de santé spécialisés, le KFSH&RC constitue un pionnier de l’innovation médicale et une plaque tournante de la recherche et de l’enseignement médical de pointe. Il s’engage à faire progresser les technologies médicales et à élever le niveau des soins de santé dans le monde entier grâce à des partenariats avec des institutions locales, régionales et internationales de premier plan dans les domaines clinique, de la recherche et de l’enseignement.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC) has achieved a significant milestone by successfully conducting liquid biopsies on patients spanning various age groups. This innovative approach offers a safer alternative to conventional tissue biopsies. Notably, KFSH&RC stands out as the first healthcare facility in the Middle East to adopt this cutting-edge technology.

This groundbreaking method is distinguished by its ability to detect approximately 50 genes associated with cancer and over 3,000 genetic mutations. This represents a pivotal advancement in patient care, eliminating the need to extract tissue from the affected area for examination. This transformative step greatly enhances healthcare outcomes and elevates the overall patient experience.

Liquid biopsy offers advantages over traditional tissue biopsies. It’s less invasive, involving a simple 10 ml blood sample that can be repeated during treatment. Additionally, it provides high accuracy in swiftly detecting tumor biomarkers, predicting treatment responses, identifying emerging mutations, and confirming the absence of tumor recurrence, marking a significant advancement in cancer science.

This technology presents a safer alternative to traditional biopsies for patients facing challenges in accessing affected tissue without surgical intervention, as seen in cases like lung cancer. It is particularly beneficial for elderly patients, for whom a lung tissue biopsy may not be suitable due to the potential for severe complications associated with it.

As a strategic health partner at the Global Health Exhibition in Riyadh from October 29 to 31, KFSH&RC will showcase its pavilion in the accompanying exhibition, where visitors can explore Liquid biopsy technology and various other healthcare solutions and technologies.

Liquid biopsy technology holds promise for other stages of cancer treatment at KFSH&RC. Through the routine use of the test, it is possible to build a database of tumor-causing mutations in the local community, which helps in early diagnosis of cancer before tumors form, in addition to tracking changes in the patient’s condition, frequently during treatment, allowing timely adjustments to treatment plans and preventing worsening of the condition.

This achievement is a part of KFSH&RC’s ongoing commitment to harness advanced technologies for enhancing operational excellence and patient care. The test facilitates swift clinical decision-making for cancer patient management and reduces both the testing time and its process through full automation.

KFSH&RC stands as one of the world’s prominent institutions in delivering specialized healthcare, leading the way in innovation, and serving as an advanced hub for medical research and education. Furthermore, it actively endeavors to advance medical technologies and elevate global healthcare standards through collaborations with significant local, regional, and international organizations, aiming to deliver world-class clinical, research, and educational services.

Henley & Partners hosts the 17th Global Citizenship Conference in Dubai

LONDON, Oct. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — More than 400 delegates from over 35 countries are expected to attend the 17th annual Global Residence and Citizenship Conference, which takes place next week (8-10 November) at the Shangri-La Hotel DIFC in Dubai, UAE.

Hosted by world-leading international citizenship and residence advisory firm Henley & Partners, this annual event has become the world’s largest and most significant conference on private wealth and investment migration, bringing together presidents, prime ministers, senior government ministers and officials, leading academics, private client advisors, wealth management professionals, and top-tier financial and business media.

The 2023 conference program features sophisticated, cutting-edge content on the major developments shaping investment migration and geopolitics today, offering delegates the opportunity to engage with the world’s leading minds and latest ideas around the central themes of global citizenship and interconnectivity.

Dr. Christian H. Kalin, Group Chairman of Henley & Partners, who will also be speaking at the conference, points out that there could not be a more relevant and necessary time to connect across borders as citizens of the world. “At a moment in our history when our world seems increasingly fractured and polarized, it is more important than ever for us to focus our minds on our shared humanity and how we can be stronger together. While it may mean different things to different people, global citizenship is based on the principle that we all have responsibilities to the world as a whole, rather than just our own local communities or countries. This conference aims to expand our horizons through global learning and understanding so that we can effect change in a more meaningful sense on both a small and larger scale.”

Notable key speakers at the conference include the Prime Ministers of Montenegro, H.E. Dr. Dritan Abazovic, and of Grenada, the Hon. Dickon Mitchell, as well as the former President and Speaker of the Parliament of the Maldives, the Hon. Mohamed Nasheed. CEO of the Dubai Economic Development Corporation, Hadi Badri, along with Prof. Dr. Christian Joppke of the Institute of Sociology at the University of Bern in Switzerland, Dr. Titus Gebel, President of the Free Cities Foundation in Germany, Prof. Dr. Khalid Koser, Executive Director of the Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund, Chief Partnership Officer of Women in AI, Middle East, Debbie Botha, and Dr. Parag Khanna, Founder and CEO of Climate Alpha in Singapore, among many others. They all will share their perspectives on the key social, economic, political and environmental trends shaping our world.

Another highlight of the conference will be the 2023 Global Citizen Award Dinner on 9 November to honor a remarkable individual working to advance one of the global challenges affecting humanity today. Hosted in collaboration with the Swiss non-profit humanitarian organization Andan Foundation, this year’s laureate will be announced at the gala event and the net proceeds of the evening will be donated to the foundation which focuses on self-reliance of refugees through education, entrepreneurship, and employment.
