In the pilot study of the National Health Survey for Children and Adolescents which has been conducted under the responsibility of the Robert Koch Institute from March 12th 2001 to March 15th 2002, 1,630 children and adolescents from 0 to 17 years as well as their parents have been included. Methodological issues have been very prominent. Questionnaires regarding properties, indicators (for example for psychic well-being) were developed and evaluated, different methods of access to the study participants as well as methods to increase the motivation to participate in the study were tested, and the property for generalisation or validity of the obtained information was investigated. The conduct of the pilot study resulted in a number of experiences and findings that will contribute to an optimised approach in the main course of the survey.

Background And Aim: There is paucity of data about the prevalence of cirrhosis and portal hypertension in the US general population.

Methods: We used National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES 2017-2020) to estimate the prevalence of cirrhosis and clinically significant (CS)-portal hypertension in alcoholic liver disease (ALD), MetALD, viral hepatitis (VH) to include chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and chronic hepatitis C (CHC), and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Cirrhosis was evaluated using liver stiffness measurement (LSM) by transient elastography or FIB-4 score; CS-portal hypertension was defined via LSM and platelet count or the use of non-selective beta-blockers in the presence of cirrhosis.

Few studies have estimated schizophrenia prevalence in the Japanese population and have often relied on reports from hospitals and self-reported physician diagnoses or typical schizophrenia symptoms. These approaches are likely to underestimate the true prevalence owing to stigma, poor insight, or lack of access to health care among respondents.
