To determine the effectiveness of increasing dietary content soluble fibre (psyllium) or insoluble (bran) in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.Randomised controlled trial.General practice.275 aged 18-65 years syndrome.12 weeks treatment 10 g psyllium (n=85), bran (n=97), placebo (rice flour) (n=93).The primary end point was adequate symptom relief during at least two previous month, analysed after one, two, and three months to assess both short term sustained effectiveness.

A substantial proportion of chronic disease patients do not respond to self-management interventions, which suggests that one size interventions fit all, demanding more tailored interventions. To compose individualized strategies, we aim increase our understanding characteristics associated with patient activation for and evaluate whether these are disease-transcending. cross-sectional survey study was conducted in primary secondary care type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM-II), Chronic Obstructive...
Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a frequent complication of herpes zoster (HZ). Treatment results this severe and long-lasting pain syndrome are often disappointing. From the point view possible prevention early treatment, it important to identify HZ patients who have an increased risk developing PHN.Our goals were determine incidence PHN in primary care population indicators for occurrence PHN.A search was conducted general practice research database, comprising 22 practices representing 49...
A general frailty indicator could guide practitioners (GPs) in directing their care efforts to the patients at highest risk. We investigated if a Frailty Index (FI) based on routine health data of GPs can predict risk adverse outcomes community-dwelling older people. This was retrospective cohort study with 2-year follow-up period among all an urban primary center aged 60 and older: 1,679 (987 women [59%], median age, 73 years [interquartile range, 65–81]).

The journey of more than 80% patients diagnosed with lung cancer starts in general practice. About 75% are an advanced stage (3 or 4), leading to mortality within one year at present. long-term data practitioners' records might contain hidden information that could be used for earlier case-finding cancer. To develop new prediction tools improve the risk assessment Text analysis electronic patient using natural language processing and machine learning practice files four networks Netherlands....
To predict the risk of future unfavourable health outcomes in older people it is common to assess level both basic and instrumental activities daily living. accomplish this, commonly used Katz-6 Lawton IADL questionnaires can be combined form ‘Modified Katz ADL’ scale, also known as Katz-15 scale. So far, validity reliability scale unknown. The objective current study investigate how well able unfavorable this related existing We performed a follow-up using data from group 60 year...

Therefore, we examined whether a Frailty Index (FI), based ICPC-coded care data, and the Groningen Indicator (GFI) questionnaire identify same older people as frail.We conducted cross-sectional, observational study 1,580 patients aged ≥ 60 years in Dutch center. Patients received GFI were surveyed their baseline characteristics. Frailty-screening software...
