Background: Influenza-like illness (ILI) and Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) are a considerable health problem in Europe. Most diagnoses are made by family physicians (FPs) and based on symptoms and clinical signs rather than on diagnostic testing. The International Classification of Primary Care (ICPC) advocates that FPs record patients’ ‘Reasons for Encounters’ (RfEs) as they are presented to
Background How does genetic liability to suicide attempt (SA), suicide death (SD), major depression (MD), bipolar disorder (BD), schizophrenia (SZ), alcohol use disorder (AUD), and drug use disorder (DUD) impact on risk for SA and SD? Methods In the Swedish general population born 1932-1995 and followed through 2017 (n = 7 661 519), we calculate family genetic risk scores (FGRS) for SA, SD, MD, BD
We sought to determine whether radiation to the colorectum had an impact on parameters of hippocampal neurogenesis and, if so, whether it could be modulated by a fiber-rich diet. Male C57BL/6J mice were fed a diet containing bioprocessed oat bran or a fiber-free diet, starting two weeks before colorectal irradiation with 4 fractions of 8 Gray or sham-irradiation. Diets were then continued for 1, 6
Objectives: To compare physical impairments between patients with hip-related pain and those with non-hip-related groin pain, and to compare both patient groups with healthy controls. Design: Cross-sectional. Participants: Eighty-one hip and groin pain patients were consecutively included and categorized into having hip-related pain or non-hip-related groin pain. Twenty-eight healthy controls were
Purpose: This study aims to investigate how sustainability has been incorporated – or mainstreamed - in a school at one university through techniques of responsibilization and accountabilization. Design/methodology/approach: Inspired by the extended case study methodology, the authors participated, observed and analyzed two audit-inspired processes, whose aims included ensuring that sustainability
Background and purpose — Hip dislocation in cerebral palsy (CP) is caused by altered muscle forces on the joint during typical hip positioning in adduction–flexion–inward rotation. Preventive surgery includes adductor–psoas lengthening (APL) or varus derotation osteotomy (VDRO) of the proximal femur. We assessed the changes in the hip abduction range after these operations. Patients and methods —
Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms similar to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are often present in women with endometriosis and microscopic colitis (MC). The objective of this study was to estimate GI symptoms in IBS, endometriosis, and MC, to compare the clinical expression of the diseases. Methods: Women with IBS, endometriosis, and MC were identified by diagnosis codes at a tertiary cent
INTRODUCTION: Anal squamous cell cancers are uncommon, and primary treatment is radical chemoradiotherapy. The role of radical surgery is in salvage of patients with residual and recurrent disease. The primary aim of the study is to determine how often such salvage surgery is required, while the secondary aim is to determine which features indicate salvage surgery may be required and to determine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Incisional hernia is a frequent negative outcome after open and minimal invasive surgery of colorectal cancer. This study aimed to determine computed tomography-verified incisional hernia prevalence 1-year post colorectal cancer surgical resection in patients sutured with standardized small stich 4:1 technique, identify risk factors for incisional hernia and assess to wha
COVID-19 is a major public health threat associated with increased disease burden, mortality, and economic loss to countries and communities. Safe and efficacious COVID-19 vaccines are key in halting and reversing the pandemic. Low confidence in vaccines has been one of the factors leading to hesitancy. We aimed to assess the COVID-19 vaccine confidence (safety and effectiveness), associated facto
Membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults, mediated by glomerular antibody deposition to an increasing number of newly recognised antigens. Previous case reports have suggested an association between patients with anti-contactin-1 (CNTN1)-mediated neuropathies and MGN. In an observational study we investigated the pathobiology and extent of this potentia
PURPOSE: Hypertension is a major global health concern. Despite of efficient antihypertensive medications a low percentage of patients reach a blood pressure (BP) of <140/90. Nonadherence is a great concern in hypertension treatment and patients' beliefs about medications has been shown to have a strong impact on adherence. The objective of this study is to examine beliefs about medications and it
Background: Cleft lip with cleft palate (CLP) is a congenital condition that affects both the oral cavity and the lips. This study estimated the prevalence and mortality of CLP using surveillance data collected from birth defect registries around the world. Methods: Data from 22 population- and hospital-based surveillance programs affiliated with the International Clearinghouse for Birth Defects S
Introduction: Most studies determining speakers’ perceived gender as binarily female or male are reliant on F0 perception, although other vocal parameters may also contribute to the perception of gender. The current study focused on the impact of breathiness on the perception of speakers’ gender as a biological variable (feminine or masculine). Methods: n = 31 normal hearing, native English speake
Objective: To validate the Voice Handicap Index-Throat (VHI-T) in Brazilian Portuguese and compare the three formats: VHI-T-Br, VHI-T used in combination with the Voice Handicap Index (VHI), and VHI-T used in combination with the reduced version of the Voice Handicap Index (VHI-10) Methods: This cross-sectional study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Recruitment and data collection we
Background Increased airflow is reported as helpful in reducing the sensation of breathlessness. This systematic review aimed to assess the effectiveness of airflow on breathlessness (primary outcome, measured using a validated tool at rest or during exercise) and health-related quality of life (secondary outcome) in people with serious respiratory illness. Methods We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Embase
Drug use disorder (DUD) is distributed unevenly over geographical areas of Sweden. We explore, using geographically weighted regression, the proportion of this variation associated with community levels of genetic risk, social deprivation and urbanicity. In the 5983 Demographic Statistical areas (DeSOs) within Sweden, we predict DeSO prevalence from mean genetic risk for DUD, measured by the famil
