Large scale implementation data are needed to evaluate clinical effects and safety. Objective To examine the association between early prophylactic hydrocortisone and survival without BPD at 36 weeks’ postmenstrual age

We unbox developments in artificial intelligence (AI) to estimate how exposure tothese developments affect firm-level labour demand, using detailed register data from Denmark, Portugal and Sweden over two decades. Based on data on AI capabilities and occupational work content, we develop and validate a time-variant measure for occupational exposure to AI across subdomains of AI, such as language mo
