“…All hospitals report their annual results to Statistics Norway, and mean and total costs per day in psychiatric hospitals are calculated. 22 Following recommendations from The Norwegian Directorate of Health, we calculated costs of hospitalizations by multiplying the number of days of hospitalization with the mean cost of care per day in a psychiatric hospital. Outpatient visits are partially capitation funded (60%) and partially fee-for-service funded (40%).…”

“…Outpatient visits are partially capitation funded (60%) and partially fee-for-service funded (40%). We estimated mean costs for outpatient visits by dividing the total fees paid for outpatient visits by the number of visits 22 and added 60% capitation. We calculated the outpatient costs by multiplying the number of outpatient visits with the estimated mean cost.…”

“…These inpatients spent a total of 224 144 (mean 23.8, range = 361) days in hospital, which constituted 18% of the total number of hospitalization days for all psychiatric conditions. 25 The mean cost per day in a psychiatric hospital was USD 1,280.00 (NOK 11,774.00), 22 and 33% of the societal costs associated with schizophrenia were related to hospitalizations (figure 2). The daily cost of day treatment programs was USD 770.00 (NOK 7077.00).…”

“…The daily cost of day treatment programs was USD 770.00 (NOK 7077.00). 22 Individuals with schizophrenia participated in 5867 day treatment programs over a total of 8655 days (mean 1.48, range = 253). The schizophrenia population had 177 971 outpatient visits in 2012, which constituted 14% of all outpatient visits in the mental health services.…”

Schizophrenia is associated with recurrent hospitalizations, need for long-term community support, poor social functioning, and low employment rates. Despite the wideranging financial and social burdens associated with the illness, there is great uncertainty regarding prevalence, employment rates, and the societal costs of schizophrenia. The current study investigates 12-month prevalence of patients treated for schizophrenia, employment rates, and cost of schizophrenia using a population-based top-down approach. Data were obtained from comprehensive and mandatory health and welfare registers in Norway. We identified a 12-month prevalence of 0.17% for the entire population. The employment rate among working-age individuals was 10.24%. The societal costs for the 12-month period were USD 890 million. The average cost per individual with schizophrenia was USD 106 thousand. Inpatient care and lost productivity due to high unemployment represented 33% and 29%, respectively, of the total costs. The use of mandatory health and welfare registers enabled a unique and informative analysis on true population-based datasets.

The alloimmune response between individuals genetically disparate for antigens encoded within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) remains a substantial barrier to transplantation of solid organs, tissues, and hematopoietic stem cells. Alloreactivity has been an immunological paradox because of its apparent contradiction to the requirement of MHC restriction for the induction of normal T lymphocyte mediated immune responses. Through crystallographic analyses and experimental systems utilizing murine CD8(+) cytolytic T cell clones, major advances have been achieved in understanding the molecular and structural basis of T cell receptor recognition of MHC-peptide complexes and the basis of T cell mediated alloreactivity. These studies have further provided an explanation for the relatively high frequencies of alloreactive T cells compared to the frequencies of T cells for microbial derived antigens.
