Eight-year outcome after invasive treatment of infrainguinal intermittent claudication : A population-based analysis from the Swedish vascular register (Swedvasc)

Objectives: Invasive treatment of infrainguinal intermittent claudication is controversial, and long-term outcomes are scarce. The study aim was to evaluate 8 years results regarding new vascular interventions on index and contralateral limb, hospitalization, mortality, and amputation in 775 patients revascularized for infrainguinal intermittent claudication in 2009. Methods: Data on new vascular

Cultural Adaptation of Interventions and the a Priori Assessment of Intervention Fit : Exploring Measurement Invariance for American and Swedish Youth Leaving Care

Purpose: There is a growing literature on the importance of cultural adaptation of research-supported social work interventions.

Autoimmune diseases as comorbidities for liver, gallbladder, and biliary duct cancers in Sweden

Background: Autoimmune diseases are associated with many cancers but there is a lack of population-based studies with different autoimmune diseases that have a long follow-up. This is also true of hepatobiliary cancers, which include hepatocellular cancer (HCC) and rarer entities of gallbladder cancer (GBC), intra- and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA and eCCA), and ampullary cancer. Methods:

Trends in Treatments With Disease-Specific and Interfering Drugs in Patients With Hereditary Angioedema in Sweden

BACKGROUND: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is caused by low levels of or defects in C1 inhibitor. Although disease activity may be modified by prophylaxis, emergency treatment, treatment for comorbidities, and oral contraceptives, the extent of their use is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate trends in the use of disease-specific and interfering drugs in patients with HAE compared with the general pop
