Managed entry agreements (MEAs) are a set of instruments to facilitate access new medicines. This study surveyed the implementation MEAs in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) where limited comparative information is currently available.We conducted survey on CEE between January March 2017.Sixteen countries participated this study. Across five with available data number different MEA implemented, most common implemented were confidential discounts (n = 495, 73%), followed by paybacks 92, 14%),...
Background: Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a poorly understood, complex, multisystem disorder, with severe not alleviated by rest, and other symptoms, which lead to substantial reductions in functional activity quality of life. Due the unclear aetiology, treatment patients complicated, but one initial problems insufficient diagnostic process. The increase number undiagnosed ME/CFS became specifically relevant light COVID-19 pandemic. aim this research was...

Background Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating chronic condition with no identified diagnostic biomarkers to date. Its prevalence as high 0.89% according metastudies, quarter of patients bed- or home-bound, which presents serious public health challenge. Investigations into the inflammation–immunity axis encouraged by links outbreaks and disease waves. Recently, research our group revealed that antibodies beta2-adrenergic (anti-β2AdR) muscarinic...
