Screening for undiagnosed atrial fibrillation using a single-lead electrocardiogram at primary care visits: patient uptake and practitioner perspectives from the VITAL-AF trial
CONCLUSIONS: Though the benefits and harms of screening for AF remain uncertain, most older patients underwent screening and PCPs were able to manage SL-ECG results, supporting the feasibility of routine primary care screening. PCPs exposed to a SL-ECG device preferred it over pulse palpation. PCPs were largely uncertain about AF screening done outside of practice visits.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03515057.

Chronic kidney disease in primary care: risk of cardiovascular events, end stage kidney disease and death
CONCLUSIONS: Our data from a large primary care cohort demonstrate an early increase in the risk of adverse outcomes already at CKD stage 3. This underlines the importance of studying early intervention in primary care.PMID:37344787 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-023-02077-7

The comparative effect of exercise interventions on balance in perimenopausal and early postmenopausal women: A systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised, controlled trials
Menopause is associated with a range of physiological, psychological and social implications [1,2]. Changes in endocrine function have also been related to higher risks for cardiovascular disease, stroke and osteoporosis [3 –5]. Furthermore, an earlier age of menopause onset is related to greater frailty in later life [6].

Diagnostic windows in non-neoplastic diseases: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Evidence of changing healthcare use before diagnosis exists for many non-neoplastic conditions, establishing that early diagnosis is possible, in principle. In particular, some conditions may be detectable many years earlier than they are currently diagnosed. Further research is required to accurately estimate diagnostic windows and to determine how much earlier diagnosis may be possible, and how this might be achieved.PMID:37308303 | PMC:PMC10285689 | DOI:10.3399/BJGP.2023.0044
