Avancées scientifiques de 2025 en médecine interne générale ambulatoire

In this article, we present eight studies published in the last 2 years that are likely to influence the practice of general practitioners in 2026. The key messages highlight the effectiveness of metformin for knee pain treatment, recent advances in the management of poorly controlled asthma, and the absence of contraindications to administering influenza and Covid-19 vaccines simultaneously. In addition, several articles describe the association between sleep duration and hypertension, blood pressure measurement protocols, the effects of vitamin K2 on nocturnal leg cramps, and the effects of intermittent fasting on weight loss. Finally, the Thrombosis Risk Prediction in Patients with Cast Immobilization Score can be used to assess whether therapeutic anticoagulation is indicated in cases of lower-limb immobilization.
