Revisiting the symptom iceberg based on the Danish symptom cohort - Symptom experiences and healthcare-seeking behaviour in the general Danish population in 2022.

Introduction: Healthcare-seeking behaviour may change over time, and some groups are more likely to avoid relevant help seeking, which possibly contributes to social inequity in health. Thus, we developed an expansion of and follow-up to the Danish Symptom Cohort (DaSC) from 2012 and formed the DaSC II, which encompassed a population-based questionnaire study investigating symptoms and healthcare-seeking behaviour. In this paper, we describe the conceptual framework, development and content validity of the questionnaire and a responder analysis of the participants in the DaSC II.

Exploring GPs' assessments of their patients' cancer diagnostic processes: a questionnaire study.

Background: Most cancer diagnostic pathways start from primary care and several factors affect the diagnostic processes.

Design And Setting: General practices in the North, Central, and Southern regions of Denmark were invited to participate in a questionnaire survey.

Healthcare practices that increase the quality of care in cancer trajectories from a general practice perspective: a scoping review.

Objective: General practice plays an important role in cancer trajectories, and cancer patients request the continuous involvement of general practice. The objective of this scoping review was to identify healthcare practices that increase the quality of care in cancer trajectories from a general practice perspective.

Design, Setting, And Subjects: A scoping review of the literature published in Danish or English from 2010 to 2020 was conducted.

Consultation expectations among patients with respiratory tract infection symptoms.

Introduction: Antibiotic resistance is a growing threat to public health, and antibiotic prescribing increases. About 90% of antibiotics are prescribed in general practice, mostly for acute respiratory tract infections. It is well known that patient expectations and general practitioners' misinterpretation of patients' expectations are associated with antibiotic overuse.
