The Possible Association of Burnout and Neuropathic Low Back Pain Among Hungarian Postal Workers: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Objective: Burnout is an increasingly prevalent phenomenon, which can be associated with a wide range of mental and physical illnesses. There is also a possible connection between burnout and neuropathic low back pain, but the association is poorly studied.

Methods: The aim of our cross-sectional study was to analyze the prevalence and risk factors of chronic neuropathic low back pain taking many co-variates into account, such as burnout and its main determinants among postal workers.

Cost dynamics of helicopter emergency services: A Hungarian example.

Objectives: Helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) have been integral to healthcare systems in developed countries and are becoming more relevant in developing countries. There is extremely scarce information available regarding the typical cost structure and dynamics of HEMS operation; thus, the limitation of knowledge may limit the shapers of national healthcare policy and potential private operators in starting such a service. This study aims to present the cost dynamics of HEMS operation.
