The costs associated with stroke care continuum: a systematic review
AbstractStroke, a leading cause of death and long-term disability, has a considerable social and economic impact. It is imperative to investigate stroke-related costs. The main goal was to conduct a systematic literature review on the described costs associated with stroke carecontinuum to better understand the evolution of the economic burden and logistic challenges. This research used a systematic review method. We performed a search in PubMed/MEDLINE, ClinicalTrial.gov, Cochrane Reviews, and Google Scholar confined to publications from January 2012 to December 2021. Prices were adjusted using consumer price indices of t...

Economic effects of healthy ageing: functional limitation, forgone wages, and medical and long-term care costs
This study aims to estimate the potential economic benefits of healthy ageing by obtaining estimates of the economic losses generated by functional limitations among middle-aged and older people. Utilising two data sources retrieved from nationally representative samples of the Japanese people, we analysed the association between functional limitation and economic indicators, including labour market outcomes, savings, investment, consumption, and unpaid activities among individuals aged  ≥ 60. Using the estimated parameters from our micro-econometric analyses and the official statistics by the Japanese government and...

Robotic-assisted surgery for  prostatectomy – does the diffusion of robotic systems contribute to treatment centralization and influence patients’ hospital choice?
ConclusionsIn conclusion, centralization is partly driven by (very) high-volume hospitals ’ investment in RAS systems and patient preferences. While outcome quality might improve due to centralization and according specialization, evidence for a direct positive influence of RAS on RPE outcomes still is ambiguous. Patients have been voting with their feet, but research yet has to catch up. (Source: Health Economics Review)

Health outcome convergence in Africa: the roles of immunization and public health spending
ConclusionThe findings suggest that policymakers should develop and implement targeted club-specific health policies. Furthermore, interventions to promote increased immunization, particularly among children, should be encouraged. Governments should also make substantial efforts to increase the share of their national budget allocated to the health sector by at least 15 percent. (Source: Health Economics Review)
