Background: Little is known about variations in the provision of chronic care services in primary care.
Aim: To describe the frequency of chronic care services provided by GPs and analyse the extent of non-random variation in service provision.
Design And Setting: Nationwide cohort study undertaken in Denmark using data from 2016.
Background: Depression is highly prevalent among hospitalized patients with pneumonia. At discharge, these patients transfer to a less care-intensive home-based setting. Nevertheless, little is known on the prognosis in the postdischarge period.

Design: Nationwide register-based cohort study.
Importance: Individuals with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia have a higher risk of adverse outcomes from cardiovascular diseases. Oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT) for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is needed for stroke prevention, but whether patients with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia face disparities in receiving this therapy is unknown.
Objective: To assess whether bipolar disorder or schizophrenia is associated with a lower rate of OAT initiation in patients with incident AF and lower prevalence of OAT in those with prevalent AF.
Background: At time of discharge after a pneumonia admission, care planning for older persons with dementia is essential. However, care planning is limited by lack of knowledge on the short-term prognosis.
Aim: To investigate 30-day mortality and readmission after hospital discharge for pneumonia in persons with versus without dementia, and to investigate how these associations vary with age, time since discharge, and medication use.
