Psychotropic drug use among children and adolescents in the Nordic countries: a systematic review.

The Nordic countries have rather homogenous populations and similar health care systems, and one could therefore expect comparable levels of psychopathology and psychotropic drug use. However, recent studies show pronounced variations in psychotropic drug use among children and adolescents from different Nordic countries. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a systematic review of the literature examining the use of psychotropic drugs among children and adolescents in the Nordic countries.

Medication management in Danish home health care: Mapping of tasks and time consumption.

We aimed to map tasks related to medication management and time consumption in Danish home health care. Nursing staff (n = 30) from five municipalities were followed during a 10-week period and tasks related to medication management, time consumption and information on citizens' medication were registered. A total of 269 courses were registered, including 163 (61%) home visits, 76 (28%) in-office courses, 29 (11%) in-clinic courses and 1 (0.

Proteinuria is accompanied by intratubular complement activation and apical membrane deposition of C3dg and C5b-9 in kidney transplant recipients.

Proteinuria predicts accelerated decline in kidney function in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). We hypothesized that aberrant filtration of complement factors causes intraluminal activation, apical membrane attack on tubular cells, and progressive injury. Biobanked samples from two previous studies in albuminuric KTRs were used.
