Introduction: Chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) is a common, yet underdiagnosed condition among patients on hemodialysis. Considering the lack of established treatment pathways, we sought to evaluate the use of antidepressant, systemic antihistamines, or gabapentinoid medications among patients with CKD-aP in the year following pruritus assessment.
Methods: We included 6209 patients on hemodialysis in the analysis.

In this study, we explore how bicycle messengers themselves experience their workday and how platform work influences their identity and wellbeing.

Aim: To investigate predictors of nurses' reporting behaviours and their reasons for not formally reporting.
Background: Underreporting of workplace violence (WPV) among nurses contributes to gaps in WPV prevention measures, as it cannot be fully understood. WPV is classified according to its source (Type II: patients and visitors, Type III: coworkers) and forms (physical assault, threat of assault, emotional abuse, verbal sexual harassment and sexual assault).
