Adherence Behavior in Subjects on Hemodialysis Is Not a Clear Predictor of Posttransplantation Adherence.

Introduction: Nonadherence is common in both hemodialysis (HD) and kidney transplant recipients and is a major risk factor for poor clinical outcomes. This retrospective study explored whether nonadherent HD patients become nonadherent transplant recipients.

Methods: Data were collected for 88 patients from the electronic patient system at a subregional renal unit about adherence to HD regimens in the 6 months before transplantation, and for 1 year posttransplantation following return transfer to the posttransplantation clinic from the transplanting center.

Non-adherence to immunosuppressants following renal transplantation: a protocol for a systematic review.

Methods And Analysis: A systematic review of quantitative studies that report adherence to immunosuppressants in adult (over 18 years) renal transplant recipients.

Committed to work but vulnerable: self-perceptions and mental health in NEET 18-year olds from a contemporary British cohort.

Background: Labour market disengagement among youths has lasting negative economic and social consequences, yet is poorly understood.

Methods: Participants were from the Environmental Risk (E-Risk) longitudinal study, a nationally representative UK cohort of 2,232 twins born in 1994-1995.
