[7 advances in internal and general medicine--practical perspectives].
A popular new feature of the Van Swieten Congress' Annual Session is the update in General Internal Medicine. The following paper serves as a straight forward, if admittedly biased, guide for the practicing GP and general internist to seven of the presented clinically important advances in the last few years. The areas chosen are cholesterol, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, helicobacter pylori, osteoporosis, pneumonia, prevention, and finally thromboembolic disease.
