Asking patients to write letters illuminates new aspects of the physician-patient-family relationship

Among other activities, participants wrote a letter to their care recipient’s doctor to the prompt: “Understanding that you know the most about this person, specifically their PD psychosis because you likely spend the most time with them (certainly more time than the doctor gets to spend with them), what details would you share?” Here, we present one letter, written by author LAD, followed by a short response by author SM, a specialist in movement disorders and narrative medicine.

The global diuretics drugs market is expected to decline from $0.9 billion in 2019 to $0.8 billion in 2020 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -17.9%.
Diuretics Drugs Global Market Report 2020-30: COVID-19 Impact and Recovery provides strategists, marketers and senior management with the critical information they need to assess the global diuretics drugs market as it emerges from the COVID-19 shut down.
The decline is mainly due to the disruption caused by the lockdown measure across various countries to contain COVID-19 spread. Currently there is less demand for genito-urinary drugs mainly as people are staying at home and are less likely to get exposed to factors that might cause genito-urinary infections, or other hormonal diseases caused by lifestyle changes or eating habits. The market is then expected to recover and grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2021 and reach $1.1 billion in 2023.
