Despite two international studies, there is still no consensus concerning prostate cancer screening. The results of a meta-analysis are making us question our convictions concerning pneumococcal vaccination. The preoperative work-up of cataract surgery can be simplified. When describing the efficacy of a treatment to a patient, relative risks are better understood than absolute risks. For rotator cuff syndrome, intramuscular corticosteroid injections are as efficient as intra-articular injections. In patients prescribed clopidogrel, a proton pump inhibitor is not absolutely necessary. The arrival of a anticoagulant that does not need blood monitoring is an interesting option in atrial fibrillation.
尽管有两项国际研究，但关于前列腺癌筛查仍未达成共识。一项荟萃分析的结果让我们对自己关于肺炎球菌疫苗接种的信念产生了质疑。白内障手术的术前检查可以简化。在向患者描述一种治疗方法的疗效时，相对风险比绝对风险更容易理解。对于肩袖综合征，肌肉注射皮质类固醇与关节内注射一样有效。在服用氯吡格雷的患者中，质子泵抑制剂并非绝对必要。一种无需血液监测的抗凝剂的出现，对于房颤来说是一个有趣的选择。
