Description
Dakshat Trivedi and co-authors profile blood chemistry across ethnic groups in a 2024 paper on healthy ageing. Most studies of body chemistry compare sick and well people, leaving normal ethnic differences poorly mapped. The team focused on community-dwelling men in north-west England.
Serum from 572 men of White European, South Asian, and African-Caribbean backgrounds, aged 40 to 86, was scanned with two high-end methods. Models sorted men by ethnicity with about 90 percent accuracy, and by age group nearly as well. Fats, organic acids, and amino-acid products drove the sorting. Pathway analysis flagged shifts in energy processing and fat building. The authors say such baselines are needed before chemistry-based health tests can be fairly tailored.
