Place of death and healthcare utilisation at the end of life among individuals with mental and behavioural disorders as underlying cause of death: population-level multiple-register study

Those with MBDs, particularly substance use disorders, face a high risk of premature death, highlighting gaps in healthcare and palliative care provision for these populations.
