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...

Importance of screening severe COVID-19 patients for IFN- λ1, IL-6 and anti-S1 IgG levels
The objective of this study is to screen IFN-λ1, IL-6 and antibody levels in consecutive serum sample sets of COVID-19 patients. A total of 365 serum samples collected from 208 hospitalized COVID-19 patients were analyzed for IFN-λ1 and IL-6 levels as well as SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies and anti-S1 IgG antibodies. Analyses of serum samples for cytokine levels showed that IFN-λ1 (>8 pg/mL) and IL-6 (>2 pg/mL) were detected in approximately 64% and 21% patients, respectively. A decrement in IFN-λ1 levels and IL-6 levels above 35 pg/mL can be sign of clinical severity and upcoming dead. An increment in IL-6 l...
