The COST project has been studying if there is any difference in biodiversity found at organic and conventional farms. Some of our colleagues at the CEC have spent summer doing fieldwork studying bumblebees. Romain Carrié and others from the COST project have collected pollen from bumblebees and surveyed flower resources at 19 different farms in Skåne.– From earlier fieldwork, we know there is a d

The CEC has produced a new report evaluating analyses and data collection of winter loss in honeybees in Sweden. Swedish beekeeping rely on the health of the honey bee Apis mellifera. Loss of colonies during winter is an indicator of poor honey bee health.This report evaluates current data collection of winter loss in honey bees in Sweden, with the purpose to give recommendations for future improv

The Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) currently includes data from 61 566 twin pair from 11 provinces or cities in China. Of these, 31 705, 15 060 and 13 531 pairs are monozygotic, same‐sex dizygotic and opposite‐sex dizygotic pairs, respectively, determined by opposite sex or intrapair similarity. Read more here.

Over the past decade, several large registries of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have been established. These registries are collecting a wealth of longitudinal data on thousands of patients with this rare disease. The data collected in these registries will be complementary to data collected in clinical trials because the patient populations studied in registries have a broader

Surgical quality registries are important tools for both performing research and improving clinical practice. The Swedish National Knee Ligament Registry (SNKLR) has collected patient-reported and surgical data on more than 90% of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions in Sweden. There has year-by-year been an increasing number of publications using data from SNKLR and the Scandinavi
Self-selection into prospective cohort studies and loss to follow-up can cause biased exposure-outcome association estimates. Previous investigations illustrated that such biases can be small in large prospective cohort studies. The structural approach to selection bias shows that general statements about bias are not possible for studies that investigate multiple exposures and outcomes, and that
