Objective: The authors examined patterns in hospital admission rates for patients with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD)-related visit to an emergency department (ED).
Methods: The authors identified 116,928 ED visits for SSD across 1,071 hospitals in an 11-state sample drawn from the 2020 State Emergency Department Databases and State Inpatient Databases. The distribution of hospital-level admission rates was described by using a finite mixture model.

Backgound: The drug central monitoring system set up in Italy to evaluate the real-time trends of medicines used in hospital and primary care settings contributed to inform drug supplies, avoided stockpiling and allowed to monitor adherence to clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. The primary objective of the study is to understand how and to what extent the drug utilisation tracked the evolution of COVID-19 pandemic and evaluate the different pharmacological approaches adopted in hospital and primary care settings.

This review synthesizes worldwide azole resistance data to reveal profound regional variability, demonstrating that findings from other regions cannot be directly extrapolated to local settings. Consequently, hospital-level environmental surveillance is crucial for tailoring interventions to local epidemiology and detecting resistant strains in real-time.
