Article Abstract
Background: Hospitals, as one of the core elements of healthcare service delivery, should pave the way for more efficient compliance with the Patient Rights Charter (PRC). The COVID-19 pandemic affected the interactions between healthcare providers and patients. The present study aimed to investigate the importance and practice of PRC from the perspective of hospitalized patients in surgical wards during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: The participants in this cross-sectional study were 355 patients who underwent surgery at Imam Khomeini Hospital in southern Kerman, Iran, in 2021. Data was collected by convenience sampling. The data in this study were collected using Justification and Practice of Patient Rights (JPPR). Data analysis was performed with SPSS-16 software using the Kruskal-Wallis, Wilcoxon, and Spearman correlation tests.
Results: The total mean score for the justification of patient rights (PR) was 69.12 ± 58.44, which was significantly higher than the total mean score of PR practice (61.02 ± 1.32) (p < 0.001). In addition, the mean scores for all PR justification dimensions were significantly higher than the mean scores for PR practice (p < 0.05). A comparison of the dimensions of the PR justification showed service facilitation had the highest score and handling patient complaints had the lowest score. Furthermore, an analysis of the dimensions of PR practice indicated that handling patient complaints had the lowest score and other dimensions had the same score.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that despite the great importance of PR from the patients' perspective, PR is not still practiced optimally. The findings from this study can have some clinical implications and help hospital managers to take measures to better adapt to the PRC with staff training and developing a strong policy to comply with the PRC, especially by paving the way for handling patient complaints.

Background: Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis-related lung disease (sJIA-LD) is a severe complication in patients with treatment-refractory systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) in a cohort of children with sJIA-LD.
Methods: This international, retrospective cohort study was performed in nine hospitals across the USA and Europe in children with sJIA-LD who had received allogeneic HSCT.

Aim: To examine the role of cultural safety within a human rights-based approach to improving the health of Indigenous Peoples.
Design: Guided by Askey and O'Malley's scoping review framework, the literature was examined on cultural safety and prioritised Indigenous voices to inform culturally safe practices. Relevant literature from 2009 to 2021 was included.
Objective: Machine learning has a great potential for prospectively forecasting individual patient response to mental health care (MHC), thereby enabling treatment personalization. However, previous efforts have been limited to populations living in predominantly higher income, developed countries. This study aimed to extend the reach of precision MHC systems by developing and testing a feasible and readily implementable algorithm for identifying patients at risk of nonresponse to routinely delivered psychotherapy in Chile, a developing country in Latin America.

Mental health care in the United States is prohibitively difficult to access. Barriers of entry include a shortage of providers, high cost of services, insufficient insurance coverage, and layers of bureaucracy. This problem of low supply and high demand created a unique environment for capitalist problem solvers to enter the therapeutic market, via "therapy-matching platforms.
