Background: A current prevalence estimate predicted the number of people with dementia (PwD) with 1.8 million in 2021. This estimation is based on data from different sources especially from field studies and does not reflect the recognized and documented cases in primary care. We, therefore, aim to compare the prevalence of diagnosed PwD in general practitioner (GP) practices with these estimates of the general population.
Methods: The number of diagnosed PwD in 946 GP practices with 2.8 million patients in 2021 was compared with the prevalence estimate of the German Alzheimer Society for 83 million inhabitants in Germany.
Results: Dementia diagnoses were documented less frequently in GP practices compared to the prevalence estimate (1.88% vs 2.16%), especially the age groups 80+years were less likely present in GP practices prevalence.
Discussion: There is still potential for optimizing dementia diagnostics in primary care, especially in patients 80 or older.

Objective: The study examines conditions to promote employment and workplace integration of people with psychosocial disabilities.
Method: 26 guided interviews were conducted with Austrian companies. 15 of these companies employed people with mental disabilities at the time of the interview. The remaining 11 companies did not employ anyone who had a declared mental illness.
Results: Companies that employ people with mental disabilities refer to an idealistic, social or socio-political motive for employment and have manifold supportive measures in place. Companies that do not employ people with mental disabilities express insecurities and ambivalent expectations regarding employment of people with mental disabilities.
Conclusion: Results show that it is imperative to inform companies of the possibilities and conditions of workplace integration of people with psychosocial disabilities.

Objective: In this study we explored the subjective experiences and needs of people with severe mental illness regarding dietary and weight-related support within routine care.
Methods: For this purpose, a total of 16 interviews with adults living with mental illness were conducted in Ulm (Germany) and Graz (Austria) using a semi-structured topic guide and were analysed in a qualitative approach.
Results: Several participants criticized the limited support by professionals regarding diet- and weight-related problems and wished for greater awareness of these issues in mental health care.
Conclusion: The implementation of health-promoting services in mental health care is important to ensure needs-oriented care from the patients' point of view. Interdisciplinary care concepts could be used to share responsibilities among several professional groups.
