This study describes latent mental health profiles among workers with a disabling physical work injury/illness and identifies differences in sociodemographic and return-to-work factors, health correlates, and disability claim duration and cost between profiles.

Background: Diaries written by nurses for critically ill patients have been implemented in some intensive care units as an intervention to construct patients' "lost time" and fill in their gaps in memory. Studies have shown that diaries have an impact on patients' psychological recovery after intensive care. However, little is known about how nurses view and carry out the process of writing a diary on behalf of a patient.

Immigrants are often pressed to show how they will contribute to a host country, thus proving through their conditions of entry and human capital whether they will be perceived as an asset or burden, and this is juxtaposed with the host country's institutions offering an improved quality of life, mainly through employment. Seeking employment is often a key factor to be economically assimilated, and in the case of highly educated Turkish migrants, the opportunity to reclaim their previous professional and quality of life statuses. Based on qualitative research, we have examined the experiences of highly educated Turkish people (n = 42) in the recently forced migrant population.

Purpose Of Review: While living organ donor follow-up is mandated for 2 years in the USA, formal guidance on recovering associated costs of follow-up care is lacking. In this review, we discuss current billing practices of transplant programs for living kidney donor follow-up, and propose future directions for managing follow-up costs and supporting cost neutrality in donor care.
Recent Findings: Living donors may incur costs and financial risks in the donation process, including travel, lost time from work, and dependent care.
