Objective: The study aimed to investigate the expectations of patients in a general psychiatric hospital regarding an "ideal" doctor.
Methods: 60 problem centred interviews with psychiatric in-patients were analysed by using a summarizing content analysis.
Results: Analysis of interview data showed three fundamental areas, which are important for patients: doctors' personality, physician-patient-interaction and treatment as well as doctors' treatment environment. The "ideal" doctor 1. is reachable and takes his time (75%), 2. is friendly and congenial (63%), 3. shows commitment and interest (60%), 4. is an understanding and sensitive contact person (60%), 5. is responsive to needs of patients (55%).
Conclusions: For that reason, optimal time management and social competence is necessary and should be a part of medical students' and doctors' education. Focusing on patients' expectations can positively influence their treatment satisfaction.

Background: To minimise the referral gap to pain psychology, the purpose of this study was to describe clinician-perceived patient suitability for pain psychology referral, develop a referral plan and outline essential elements of a referral conversation via a modified Delphi approach with multidisciplinary paediatric pain providers.
Methods: We employed a three-round modified Delphi approach consulting multidisciplinary paediatric pain providers (n=18) including physicians, psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and nurse practitioners (PT, OT, NP). Based on the responses to an online survey (Round 1), initial statements regarding the pain psychology referral process were developed.

Introduction: The present study aimed to investigate the prescribing patterns of anticholinergics (anti-AChR) or β3-adrenergic agonists (βA) in the pharmacotherapy of overactive bladder (OAB) and to evaluate the differences in the frequency of adverse events (AEs) between the two types of drugs using a large-scale medical claims database.
Methods: This cohort study was conducted using the JMDC claims database between May 2015 and April 2023. Patient characteristics, prescription and treatment patterns of anti-AChR and βA, and the incidence of AEs have been described.

Introduction: While people with diabetes (PWD)'s experiences with their insulin delivery systems (IDS) are frequently reported in clinical trials, few real-world data exist on the subject. This study aimed to assess the real-world experience and satisfaction with IDS in PWD.
Methods: This cross-sectional survey of PWD treated with tubed or tubeless insulin pumps, hybrid closed loop (HCL) systems, or multiple daily injections (MDI) for at least 3 months ran from 4 to 16 May 2023.

This manuscript explores the intricacies and nuances of the Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) procedure, drawing on insights from three decades of experience at a specialized center managing numerous cases of male factor infertility. Our center is comprised of an embryology laboratory, an andrology and assisted fertilization laboratory, and a Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A) laboratory, each fostering specialized expertise independently. Collaboration among these laboratories, alongside reproductive physicians and urologists, ensures comprehensive feedback and optimal care for patients undergoing infertility treatment.
