A diagnostic tool for self-poisoned patients: Analysis of gastric content and lavage fluids
In conclusion, we demonstrate that toxicological screening and quantification of drug levels in gastric content is possible and has potential as an adjunct in patient care, but limitations need to be addressed before implementation in clinical practice.PMID:33380548 (Source: The Netherlands Journal of Medicine)

Hypotonic polyuria: at the cross-roads of copeptin
Neth J Med. 2020 Dec;78(6):309-314.ABSTRACTThe aetiology of hypotonic polyuria, after excluding solute diuresis, is one of primary polydipsia, central, or nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Theoretically, these disorders should be relatively easily distinguished based on history and the results of an indirect water deprivation test. Practically, however, there is a significant overlap in diagnostic evaluation, potentially leading to an erroneous diagnosis and deleterious management plan. The ability to measure a stimulated copeptin level, either with hypertonic saline or arginine infusion, has led to greater diagnostic accura...

Severe acute respiratory infections surveillance for early signals in the community
CONCLUSION: This observational study demonstrates that routinely collected data can be used for describing trends of ARI in secondary care and may be suitable for near real-time SARI surveillance. In most seasons, the incidence peaks for ARI in secondary care preceded the peaks in primary care and crude mortality with a considerable time-lag. It would be of great value to add microbiological test results to the incidence data to better explain the difference in time-lag between these surveillance systems.PMID:33380528 (Source: The Netherlands Journal of Medicine)

Implementation of 'Choosing Wisely Netherlands' for internal medicine
CONCLUSION: Four years after the introduction, only one-third of physicians and residents of internal medicine were aware of the Choosing Wisely Netherlands campaign. Nevertheless, most Choosing Wisely recommendations were implemented sufficiently in clinical practice. There is room for improvement, mainly in recommendations that need a multidisciplinary approach.PMID:33380529 (Source: The Netherlands Journal of Medicine)

Doppler follow-up after TIPS placement is not routinely indicated. A 16-years single centre experience
CONCLUSION: The use of routine Doppler ultrasound follow-up after PTFE-covered TIPS placement seems unnecessary as it had a very low yield and abnormal Doppler findings were almost always associated with clinical symptoms of TIPS dysfunction.PMID:33380530 (Source: The Netherlands Journal of Medicine)

Intraperitoneal treatment for advanced ovarian cancer, the Dutch experience. What did we learn?
CONCLUSION: In daily practice, 54% of patients with advanced OC could complete all scheduled cycles of iv/ ip chemotherapy with acceptable morbidity and toxicity, leading to outcomes comparable with the results of published trials on iv/ip chemotherapy.PMID:33380532 (Source: The Netherlands Journal of Medicine)
