Method for Identifying Proteomic Biomarkers of Health

Classification of proteomic samples from sick and non-sick individuals is important for developing high-quality diagnostics of diseases. Creating a shortlist of proteins useful for diagnostics is challenging. In this manuscript a simple algorithm of creating a multidimensional biomarker of health based on scanning proteomics data is provided. The algorithm is applied to several existing publicly available datasets and demonstrates a 9-protein indicator of atopic dermatitis, and 6-protein indicator of heart failure.
