Abstract:
SummaryAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with a significantly increased stroke risk which is highly preventable with appropriate oral anticoagulant therapy (OAC). However, AF may be asymptomatic and unrecognised prior to stroke. We aimed to determine if single time-point screening for AF could identify sufficient numbers with previously undiagnosed AF, to be effective for stroke prevention. This is a systematic review of clinical trials, by searching electronic medical databases, reference lists and grey literature. Studies were included if they evaluated a general ambulant adult populati

We performed two different analyses. In one, we assessed the prevalence of unknown thyroid dysfunctions among 6252 subjects who had a medical examination and blood collection for assays of thyrotropin, free thyroxine, and anti

Abstract:
IntroductionTo reduce the burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Shanghai, China, a CRC screening programme was commenced in 2013 inviting those aged 50–74 years to triennial screening with a faecal immunochemical test (FIT) and risk assessment. However, it is unknown whether this is the optimal screening strategy for this population. We aimed to determine the optimal CRC screening programme for Shanghai in terms of benefits, burden, harms and cost-effectiveness.MethodsUsing Microsimulation Screening Analysis-Colon (MISCAN-Colon), we estimated the costs and effects of the current screening progr

Abstract:
There are currently a number of initiatives under development to improve the service provided for people with diabetes in the Morecambe Bay area. At present, the implications of the fragmentation of primary care trusts are unknown, but Dr Simon Wetherell, general practitioner (GP) at Queen Square, Lancaster, describes the development of diabetic services, in particular the service for eye screening, as they have prospered under the care of the now defunct Morecambe Bay Primary Care Trust (MBPCT).

Abstract:
The majority of cases of occult bleeding are found in the course of colorectal cancer screening or during the evaluation of iron deficiency anemia. In up to half of all patients with occult GI bleeding, the source will not be found on initial endoscopic evaluation. Occult gastrointestinal bleeding is an issue with difficulties in diagnosis and treatment. It may come to the clinic as asymptomatic, detected in routine screenings or as iron deficiency of unknown etiology. In recent years, there have been great advances in the diagnosis and treatment. Capsule endoscopy and enteroscopy have provide
