Introduction: In recent years, intravitreal injections (IVT) of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors have become the standard of care for several macular disorders. Frequently, the therapeutic course requires numerous injections, posing a burden on patients. Non-adherence to treatment may result in reduced visual outcomes, therefore understanding and addressing the underlying causes is imperative.

The goal of this pre-registered study was to examine whether the DSM-5 Alternative Model of Personality Disorder (AMPD), generality personality dysfunction (LPFS-BF 2.0) or maladaptive personality traits (PID-5), can predict time to premature discontinuation of pharmacological treatment beyond other known factors.

Background: A lack of medication adherence among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been reported. Inter-professional collaborations seem essential for an optimal therapeutic management of patients. The aim of this study was to analyse the barriers and facilitators of general practitioners (GPs) for the implementation of collaborative support programmes in RA.

Background: Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. Approximately half of the patients who have had a prior hospital admission for CHD will have a recurrent coronary event, with the majority of these occurring within 12 months. Despite well-established evidence-based therapies, medication non-adherence is highly prevalent and reasons for medication non-adherence are poorly understood.

Purpose Of Review: To review currently existing knowledge on a new type of antihypertensive treatment, small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting hepatic angiotensinogen.
Recent Findings: Targeting angiotensinogen synthesis in the liver with siRNA allows reaching a suppression of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activity for up to 6 months after 1 injection. This might revolutionize antihypertensive treatment, as it could overcome non-adherence, the major reason for inadequate blood pressure control.
