Recent prostate cancer screening trials have given conflicting results and it is unclear how to reduce prostate cancer mortality while minimising overdiagnosis and overtreatment. Prostate cancer testing is a partially observable process, and planning for testing requires either extrapolation from randomised controlled trials or, more flexibly, modelling of the cancer natural history.

To present the Uppsala Longitudinal Adolescent Depression Study, initiated in Uppsala, Sweden, in the early 1990s. The initial aim of this epidemiological investigation was to study the prevalence, characteristics and correlates of adolescent depression, and has subsequently expanded to include a broad range of social, economic and health-related long-term outcomes and cost-of-illness analyses.

The efficacy of early supported discharge (ESD) has not been tested in current stroke care setting, which provide relatively short hospital stays, access to hyper-acute therapies and early carotid stenosis interventions. This study aimed to compare patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) among patients with stroke that received modern stroke unit care with or without ESD. New publication in BMC N

Over the last decades the advent of digital documentation has provided research communities with valuable resources of information for clinical research. To utilize the potential of information about patients, their health care, and its outcome that is already available in different registers, the possibility to cross-reference information from different registers is inevitably required.

The Utstein factors explained 51% of the variation in survival to hospital discharge among multiple large geographically separate EMS agencies. This suggests that quality improvement and public health efforts should continue to target modifiable Utstein factors to improve OHCA survival. Further study is required to identify the reasons for the variation that is incompletely understood. New publica

Six main points of this article, at least at heart, are clear, documented, and convincing. In simple terms, these points are the following: (1) causal inference for certain questions in environmental epidemiology, such as studying the health effects of climate change, is difficult; (2) traditional methods have worked quite well for certain problems in environmental epidemiology; (3) additionally,
