RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Comprehensive statistics evaluating pregnancies complicated by various medical conditions are desirable for the optimization of prenatal care and for improving maternal and fetal outcomes. The main objective of our study was to assess pregnancies during a 13-year study period with accompanying pregestational neurological disorders in medical history on a nationwide level. METHODS: In the framework of the NEUROHUN 2004-2017 project utilizing medical reports submitted for reimbursement purposes to the National Health Insurance Fund, we included women with at least one labor during 2004-2016 who had at least one pregestational diagnosis of a neurological disorder received within this time frame prior to their first pregnancy during the studied period. Three-digit codes from the 10th International Classification of Diseases (ICD) were used for the identification and classification of neurological and obstetrical conditions. RESULTS: Specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were employed during the study process. A total of 744 226 women have been identified with at least one delivery during the study period with 98 792 of them (13.3%) having at least one neurological diagnosis received during 2004-2016 before their first gestation in the time frame of the study. The vast majority of diagnosis codes were related to different types of headaches affecting 69 149 (9.3%) individuals. The most prevalent diagnoses following headaches were dizziness and giddiness (15 589 patients [2.1%]; nerve, nerve root and plexus disorders (10 375 patients [1.4%]); epileptic disorders (7028 patients [0.9%]); neurological diseases of vascular origin (6091 patients [0.8%]); other disorders of the nervous system (5358 patients [0.7%]); and demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system (2129 patients [0.3%]). The present findings of our study show high prevalence of pregestational neurological disorders, the dominance of headaches followed by the rather nonspecific diagnosis of dizziness and giddiness, the relevance of nerve, nerve root and plexus disorders and epilepsy, and the importance of cerebrovascular disorders among women of childbearing age. CONCLUSION: The present research findings can help healthcare professionals, researchers and decision makers in adopting specific health policy measures based on nationwide data and further aid the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms of various neurological manifestations concerning women of childbearing age.

The aim of our study is to analyse the health insurance reimbursement of oncology drugs in outpatient care, inpatient care and named patient system. Data were derived from the database of the National Health Insurance Fund Administration (OEP). The analysis covers data of pharmaceuticals with health insurance reimbursement between 1 January and 31 December, 2008. We performed the analysis according to the ATC group "L" and ICD codes C00-C99 and D00-D48. Within "L" ATC group, for ICD codes C00-C99 and D00-D48 the annual health insurance expenditure for outpatient and named patient drugs were 36.3 billion Hungarian Forints (HUF) (144.5 million EUR, 211.3 million USD). For drugs used in the acute inpatient care, we found 22.59 billion HUF (89.9 million EUR, 131.5 million USD) annual health insurance expenditure. The Hungarian National Health Insurance Fund Administration (OEP) spent altogether 58.9 billion HUF (234.4 million EUR, 342.8 million USD) for the reimbursement of oncological drugs in outpatient, named patient and inpatient care. The reimbursement of oncological drugs represents a significant expenditure for the Hungarian National Health Insurance Fund Administration (OEP). Boncz I, Donka-Verebes É, Oberfrank F, Kásler M.
