N2 - Looking for the name of Marcel Proust on search engines, it seems that the centenary of his death (1922) has gone unnoticed by medical doctors. Several essays on his illness have already been published, but the only scientific article from 2022 was dedicated to his father, Adrien Proust. For this reason, it is important to return to this topic, and provide new perspectives for investigation.
