Most respondents used quality indicators from the two cardiovascular NQRs infrequently (<3 times/year). The results indicate that linking registration of quality indicators to using them for QI activities increases their routine use and makes them meaningful tools for professionals.

When the pandemic is over, it is important that information is preserved about how Lund University faced and managed the crisis. What decisions were made? What measures were taken? How was the organisation and its activities affected? Preserved information constitutes a basis for research and learning for the future.There are two types of documentation related to the coronavirus/Covid-19:Changes a
Employment agency Academic Work conduct the Young Professional Attraction Index (YPAI) survey annually, in close collaboration with polling firm Kantar. Their survey asks young people in various professional categories which employer they would most like to work for, and what makes an employer attractive. The aim of the study is to help companies and organisations to understand, attract and develo

Comorbidity in stroke is common, but comprehensive reports are sparse. We describe prevalence of comorbidity and the prognostic impact on mortality and functional outcome in a large national ischemic stroke cohort. New publication in SAGE Journals
An increasing number of patients with central nervous system (CNS) tumor could survive to reproductive age. However, it is largely unknown whether the history of CNS tumor might affect pregnancy outcome. We aimed to explore the risk of being born preterm among children of CNS tumor survivors. New publication in International Journal of Cancer
The influence of gender on bipolar disorder is controversial and it is unclear if inpatient care differs between men and women. Here, we investigate for gender differences in the inpatient length of stay for Swedes admitted for bipolar disorder and explore other factors that could explain any observed association. New publication in Journal of Affective Disorders
Obesity defined as increased BMI is commonly associated with higher revision rates following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We examined the effect of BMI on the rate of revision after TKA, for both infection and other reasons, and analyzed weight and height separately to provide better understanding of the risk profile.

A growing number of young patients with central nervous system (CNS) tumour survived for more than five years. However, these long-term survivors might be at risk of multiple late effects thus leading to a higher risk of late mortality. We aimed to explore the risk of late mortality and the pattern of mortality among long-term survivors of childhood or adolescent CNS tumour. New publication in Spr
Radical prostatectomy (RP) is a common surgical procedure with a risk of postoperative erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence. There is a need for data on RP as a basis for quality assurance and benchmarking. New publication in Journal of Surgical Oncology

The best-fit model predicted risk for DA in S2 as a function of the log of kilometres between S1 and S2 with parameter estimates (±95% confidence intervals) of 0.94 (0.92; 0.95). Prediction of DA included effects of cohabitation and an interaction of proximity and time since S1 registration with stronger effects of proximity early in the follow-up period. Proximity effects were stronger for smalle

Carriers of haemophilia suffer a significant risk for joint comorbidities. This risk seems to correlate to the factor activity. Our findings underline the impor‐tance of regular clinical follow‐up of carriers at HTCs. New publication in Wiley.Read more here.
Enzalutamide can be used to effectively treat mCRPC patients in daily clinical settings, despite the patients being older and less healthy than those enrolled in the previous randomised, clinical registration studies. Read the full paper here.

In married individuals, resident children are associated with a reduction in basal risk for AUD which is stronger in mothers than fathers and with younger v. older children. This effect is also evident during high-risk periods. In mothers, our results are consistent with a largely causal effect. New publication in Psychological Medicine.Read more here.
