Stigmatization and Preferences in Monkeypox Vaccine Regimens
A significant monkeypox (mpox) outbreak occurred in 2022, particularly involving sexual and gender minority (SGM) groups. Stigma and misperceptions have led to fear of being labeled a member of the SGM group when obtaining immunization for mpox. We hypothesized that the most recommended injection site, intradermal injection in the forearm, stresses stigmatization. We conducted an online survey in a medical center in Taiwan between May 2023 and Ju…
Tuberculosis among migrant workers in Taiwan
BACKGROUND: Although the worldwide incidence of tuberculosis (TB) has been slowly decreasing, the migrant workers remains an important gap for regional TB control. In Taiwan, the numbers of the migrant workers from countries with high TB incidence increase significantly in past decades and the impact on public health remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the difference of TB incidence between Taiwanese and the migrant workers. METHODS: The…
Chronic Viral Hepatitis Signifies the Association of Premixed Insulin Analogues with Liver Cancer Risks: A Nationwide Population-Based Study
This study sought to determine whether chronic hepatitis B or C would modify the association between insulin analogues and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risks. We conducted a nationwide nested case-control study for HCC cases and matched controls from 2003 to 2013 among newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients on any antidiabetic agents in Taiwan before and after exclusion of chronic viral hepatitis, respectively. A total of 5832 and 1237 HCC ca…
Attitudes and awareness of medical assistance while traveling abroad
BACKGROUND: With globalization, more and more people travel to countries where they are at risk of injuries and travel-related diseases. To protect travelers' health, it is crucial to understand whether travelers accurately perceive medical assistance resources before and during their trips. This study investigated the need, awareness, and previous usage of overseas emergency medical assistance services (EMAS) among people traveling abroad. METHO…
Prescription patterns of traditional Chinese medicine for peptic ulcer disease in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based study
Anti-atherosclerotic action of Ger-Gen-Chyn-Lian-Tang and AMPK-dependent lipid lowering effect in hepatocytes
Adverse pharmaceutical payment incentives and providers' behaviour: The emergence of GP-owned gateway pharmacies in Taiwan
OBJECTIVES: We investigated whether a 2002 pharmaceutical payment reform policy, which provided adverse incentives, fostered an increase in market share of 'gateway pharmacies' (G-pharmacies--pharmacies owned, operated and located by the same clinics that prescribe medicines); what the financial impact of G-pharmacies to the clinics is; and what factors determine whether a clinic decides to open a G-pharmacy. METHODS: Using the database of the Na…
