Disparities in prevalence of heart failure between the genders in relation to age, multimorbidity and socioeconomic status in southern Sweden : a cross-sectional study

OBJECTIVE: Prior studies have reported that heart failure typically affects elderly, multimorbid and socioeconomically deprived men. Women with heart failure are generally older, have a higher EF (ejection fraction) and have more heart failure-related symptoms than men. This study explored the disparities in the prevalence of heart failure between men and women in relation to age, multimorbidity l

Exposure to local, source-specific ambient air pollution during pregnancy and autism in children : a cohort study from southern Sweden

Evidence of air pollution exposure, namely, ambient particulate matter (PM), during pregnancy and an increased risk of autism in children is growing; however, the unique PM sources that contribute to this association are currently unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate local, source-specific ambient PM exposure during pregnancy and its associations with childhood autism, specific

Supratentorial CNS-PNETs in children; a Swedish population-based study with molecular re-evaluation and long-term follow-up

Background: Molecular analyses have shown that tumours diagnosed as supratentorial primitive neuro-ectodermal tumours of the central nervous system (CNS-PNETs) in the past represent a heterogenous group of rare childhood tumours including high-grade gliomas (HGG), ependymomas, atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumours (AT/RT), CNS neuroblastoma with forkhead box R2 (FOXR2) activation and embryonal tumour

Macroeconomic fluctuations and individual use of psychotropic medications : evidence from Swedish administrative data

BACKGROUND: A growing literature finds that adult mental health worsens during economic downturns. Current insights on the relationship between macroeconomic fluctuations and psychotropic medication are based on self-reported information or aggregate measures on prescriptions. This study assesses the relationship between local macroeconomic conditions and individual use of psychotropic medication

Transforming Church Strategies in a Changing Social Landscape : Sunday School Statistics from a Swedish Diocese, 1920–1990

This article offers a reconsideration of religious mobilisation in the inter- and post-war periods. It focuses on how the Church of Sweden gradually altered its catechetical activities aimed at children to meet changing needs. Built on a range of statistical sources, this article calls for a reconsideration of the ways in which larger Protestant denominations adjusted to meet declining religious p

The contribution of population age-sex structure to the excess mortality estimates of 2020–2021 in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden

The Nordic countries offer an ideal case study of the COVID-19 pandemic due to their comparability, high data quality, and variable mitigations. We investigated the age- and sex-specific mortality patterns during 2020–2021 for the five Nordic countries and analysed the total age- and sex-adjusted excess deaths, ratios of actual to expected death rates, and age-standardized excess death estimates.

Effective communications on invasive alien species : Identifying communication needs of Swedish domestic garden owners

Invasive alien species threaten biodiversity with domestic gardens acting as a major pathway for the introduction of alien species. Even though the Nordic region is not currently a hotspot for biological invasions, the number of invasions in the Nordic area has been predicted to increase due to climate change. Given a time lag between introduction and invasion, many non-invasive horticultural alie
