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.

A trial-based economic evaluation of the CaFaSpA referral strategy for axial spondyloarthritis
CONCLUSIONS: Digital referral did not decrease the overall healthcare status of patients after 1 year of follow-up and appears to be more cost-effective than UC. Therefore, CS can be used as an appropriate primary care referral model for CLBP patients at risk for axSpA. This will accelerate timely provision of care by the right caregiver.PMID:37650240 | DOI:10.1080/03009742.2023.2243081

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...
