Does exposure to black carbon during pregnancy increase the risk of autism spectrum disorder? A cohort study from Southern Sweden

Black carbon (BC), a major component of fine particulate matter (PM2.5), has been implicated in adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD). While PM2.5 has been associated with increased ASD risk, the specific role of BC remains uncertain. This study aimed to assess prenatal exposure to BC and risk for ASD development in a low exposure setting, using a large, hi

Avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) in Swedish preschool children : a screening study

Background: Despite its common early onset, little is known about the prevalence and clinical presentation of avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) in very young children, hindering early identification and intervention. Differentiating ARFID from normative selective eating is particularly challenging, yet validated parent-reported screening tools are lacking. This study aimed to estim

A community intervention to reduce alcohol consumption and drunkenness among adolescents in Sweden : a quasi-experiment

BACKGROUND: Several studies have examined the effect of community interventions on youth alcohol consumption, and the results have often been mixed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a community intervention known as the Öckerö Method on adolescent alcohol consumption and perceived parental attitudes towards adolescent drinking. METHOD: The study is based on a quasi-experim

Long-term self-treatment with methadone or buprenorphine as a response to barriers to opioid substitution treatment : the case of Sweden

Background It is well known that illicit use of methadone and buprenorphine is common among people with an opioid dependence. Less notice has been taken of the fact that these substances are also used for extended periods of self-treatment, as a way of handling barriers to OST. In this study, motives for self-treatment are investigated, as well as attitudes and perceived barriers to OST among drug

Using sentinel-2 data to quantify the impacts of drought on crop yields at local and regional scales in Sweden

A causal inference framework was developed to investigate crop responses to agricultural drought by integrating meteorological data, Sentinel-2-derived data, and soil property maps. To account for crop rotation, soil, and topographical variables, propensity score matching was employed to estimate drought-induced yield losses at the field level for selected periods. The Plant Phenology Index (PPI)

Applicability of the European Association of Urology 2021 Prognostic Model for Non–muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer in a Swedish Population-based Cohort

The European Association of Urology (EAU) 2021 prognostic model for non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is based on the World Health Organization (WHO) 1973 and/or WHO 2004/2022 grading systems for patients who did not receive bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) instillations and is widely used to assess the risk of progression. The estimated risk of progression affects the type of adjuvant intr

Attitudes and beliefs regarding umbilical cord clamping among midwives, obstetricians, and neonatologists in Sweden: A national cross-sectional survey

ObjectiveThe study aimed to explore attitudes and beliefs among midwives, obstetricians, and neonatologists regarding umbilical cord clamping practices, including scenarios involving neonatal compromise. The study was conducted in the context of exploring the potential for implementing intact cord resuscitation.Study designA national cross-sectional survey was administered electronically, using anObjectiveThe study aimed to explore attitudes and beliefs among midwives, obstetricians, and neonatologists regarding umbilical cord clamping practices, including scenarios involving neonatal compromise.

Prevalence and risk factors of feeding difficulties in children with delayed reconstruction of esophageal atresia : a Swedish nationwide study

Purpose: Children with delayed reconstruction of esophageal atresia (DREA) have a high risk of morbidity. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of feeding difficulties in children with DREA, differences to children with primary anastomosis (PA) and identify risk factors for feeding difficulties in children with DREA. Methods: Parents of 30 children with DREA, born 2001–2018, were r

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFASs) contamination profiles in water and sediments for two contrasting lakes in southern and northern Sweden

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are becoming an increasingly global concern. PFASs are highly fluorinated organic chemicals that represent a serious risk for environmental and human health. Due to their toxicological impact, PFASs are now included in several emission regulations. Even if the global level of PFASs use is decreasing much of present concentrations in the environ

No obvious time trend in proximal humeral fracture complexity : a cohort study from 1944 to 2020 in Malmö, Sweden

AimsThe epidemiology of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) has been described in terms of incidence, fracture complexity, and general time trends, but current literature on time trends in PHF complexity is limited. This study aims to explore possible time trends in PHF complexity and report the distribution of different types of PHF from January 1944 to December 2020.MethodsThe city of Malmö, Swede

Broad-scale overdose education and naloxone distribution– 5-year follow-up of a regional program in Skåne County, Sweden

Background: Opioid use disorder is a chronic disorder with a high risk of overdose-related morbidity and mortality where a large proportion of these can be averted by timely administration of the antidote naloxone. For naloxone to be present when and where overdoses occur, broad-scale overdose education and naloxone distribution (OEND) must be established. A regional naloxone program was implement

The most common diagnoses in primary care, and changes over time, in the total population of Stockholm, Sweden

Objective: Primary care is the base in many health care systems, and to identify the most registered diagnoses in primary care is a way to identify the overall health care use and needs in society. We estimated the rates of the 30 most common diagnoses in primary health care and their male to female ratio. Research design and methods: This was a study including inhabitants 18 years and older out o
