It makes use of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics techniques, obtaining a large amount of information which enables a more precise characterization of the patient. This model expands to the principles of prediction, prevention, personalization and participation, including all medical specialties. In nephrology, the application of precision medicine could play a central role, thanks to the information available today in multiple fields: for example the impact of alterations in the intestinal microbiota on the progression of chronic renal failure, in polycystic disease, in diabetic nephropathy and in the personalized approach to the transition period before the beginning of hemodialysis therapy.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Giornale di Clinica Nefrologica e Dialisi}, author={La Rosa, Sandra and Guglielmo, Chiara and Ocello, Alessandra and Sessa, Concetto and Seminara, Giuseppe and Granata, Antonio}, year={2021}, month={Sep.}, pages={112–119} }
