Adjustment disorder and its risk factors during the solid organ pre-transplant period for children: A retrospective analysis of the last 10 years.

Additionally, the study identified the length of hospital stay and the type of organ needed as independent predictors of AD. Screening for AD by considering risk factors may provide an opportunity for early intervention before the occurrence of major mental disorders in transplant candidates.
