    • The present invention relates to a predictive diagnostic method for identifying whether a patient will develop metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes in the future. In particular, the invention relates to a method for identifying a subject which has a risk for developing metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes, wherein the method comprises (a) analyzing (i.e. determining/measuring/quantifying) in a sample obtained from a test subject the amount of miR-122; and (b) identifying (i.e. detecting) a subject, which has a risk for developing metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes, wherein an increased amount of miR-122 as compared to the amount of miR-122 of a healthy reference population indicates a risk for developing metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes. Another aspect of the invention relates to a method for monitoring the therapeutic success during the treatment of metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes, wherein the method comprises (a) analyzing (i.e. determining/measuring/quantifying) in a first sample obtained from a test subject the amount of miR-122, wherein said first sample was obtained before or under treatment of the test subject with medication for metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes; (b) analyzing (i.e. determining/measuring/quantifying) in a second sample of said test subject the amount of miR-122, wherein said second sample was obtained under or after treatment of the test subject with medication for metabolic syndrome and/or type-2 diabetes; and (c) predicting the therapeutic success (i.e. detecting, whether therapeutic success exists), wherein a decreased amount of miR-122 in the second sample as compared to the first sample indicates therapeutic success.
