Objective: To evaluate, in patients with chronic migraine (CM) in real-world conditions, the persistence, effectiveness, and tolerability of erenumab, fremanezumab, and galcanezumab anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (anti-CGRP) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and the persistence and effects of switching.
Background: Anti-CGRP mAbs represent a novel therapeutic approach to the management of CM; however, real-world data on persistence, effectiveness, and tolerability, especially after switching, are scarce.
Methods: This was a retrospective observational cohort study including all patients with CM treated with erenumab, fremanezumab, and/or galcanezumab in a tertiary hospital between January 2019 and December 2022.
Introduction: Integrated care pathways (ICPs) are crucial for delivering individualised care. However, the development of ICPs is challenging and must be well designed to provide the expected benefits. Regarding this, healthcare organisations are increasingly adopting management systems based on Lean Thinking to improve their organisational processes by eliminating non-value-added steps.

The main objective of this study was to study the frequency and patterns of CAM natural products use in a large cohort of PLWH and to identify potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and the impact on their antiretroviral treatment (ART) adherence and efficacy.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional multicenter survey including 420 PLWH from different Spanish hospitals.
