Thromboembolic disease and cancer: Attitude and practice of general practitioners. A qualitative study
DISCUSSION: The question of etiology of cancer remains unanswered. General practioners would like to be made aware of a common, codified attitude. This raises the question of the applicability of the recommendations. The aim is to avoid misdiagnosing a cancer or delaying a diagnosis, while at the same time, not unnecessarily exposing certain patients to excessive investigations when these are not needed. So, it is time to think about better dissemination of recommendations, tools to help GPs easily finding what they need among the multitude of existing recommendations and tools, to establish better collaboration between ge...

Healthcare use and clinical investigations before a diagnosis of ovarian cancer: a register-based study in Denmark
CONCLUSIONS: Increased healthcare use was seen relatively closely to the time of diagnosis for women with OC. This indicates a narrow window of opportunity for a timelier diagnosis. Still, the use of specialised assessment increased at six to eight months before the diagnosis. When women present unspecific symptoms, awareness of potential ovarian malignancies and safety-netting by the general practitioner may be pivotal.TRIAL REGISTRATION: Not relevant.PMID:37644395 | PMC:PMC10466681 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-023-02132-3

Results from the PRIMA Trial: Comparison of the STHLM3 Test and Prostate-specific Antigen in General Practice for Detection of Prostate Cancer in a Biopsy-na ïve Population
CONCLUSIONS: The STHLM311 test improved sensitivity but not specificity for detection of GG ≥2 PC in the clinical setting of nonsystematic PC testing in general practice. Further studies are needed to validate a possible benefit of using a higher cutoff for STHLM3 positivity as an entry test for MRI.PATIENT SUMMARY: We used a test called STHLM3 for detection of prostate cancer in general practice and compared its performance to the conventional PSA (prostate-specific antigen) test. We found that STHLM3 test results of 11% or above were not better at selecting men for MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans than the PSA te...
