Does prior depression in women treated with assisted reproduction technology (ART) influence the number of treatment cycles and ART live births? Women a diagnosis to initiated statistically significantly fewer had lower mean births compared no history depression. Previous studies have shown an increased prevalence depressive symptoms fertility patients than comparison groups.

Summary Objective To record cases of suicide and attempted among a population 108 000 people living in primarily rural area southern India, with the aim guiding policies strategies to restrict access poisonous compounds at community level. Method Community‐based surveillance over period 2 years. Results conclusion The overall rate was 71.4 per 100 population; highest burden men. Most died through hanging (81, 54%) self‐poisoning (46, 31%). Of 46 who from self‐poisoning, 78.3% had taken...
Western countries are experiencing an ageing and shrinking workforce in the eldercare sector. This study investigated whether 12 different work-related factors associated with early retirement intentions of employees Danish We tested three hypotheses explained increase intention: (i) high job demands (four factors) low resources factors); (ii) attitude (three (iii) physical strain (one factor).We included 2444 (aged 45-57 years) from two waves (T1 T2) a prospective study. Multinomial...
Exposure to air pollution including diesel engine exhaust (DEE) is associated with increased risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Few studies have investigated the AMI according occupational exposure DEE. The aim this study was evaluate association between DEE and first-time AMI. a register-based cohort Danish working population included 903,415 individuals aged 35-50 years in 1995. estimates were assigned by linking quantitative job matrix individual history (1976-2017). National...
Objectives The objective was to investigate if high physical workload during pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes. Methods register-based cohort, DOC*X-Generation included employed pregnant women in Denmark (1977–2018). A summary score of workloads, based on a job exposure matrix eight work activities, linked the held (coded by DISCO-88). divided into five groups from low exposure. Data miscarriages were retrieved Danish National Patient Register. Preterm birth (PTB) and small for...
Objectives This population-based cohort study examined the association between psychosocial work environment exposures and autoimmune rheumatic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic sclerosis (SS), lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods The total Danish working population, 19–58 years of age (N=2 319 337) was followed from 1997–2018 (37 529 977 person years). Quantitative demands, decision authority, emotional job insecurity, physical violence, role conflicts possibilities for...
We aimed to investigate the association between occupational exposure respirable crystalline quartz (RCQ) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a Danish register-based cohort (DOC*X Dust, n = 903,415). Through 1976–2017, information on occupation was linked quantitative estimates of RCQ, obtained from job-exposure matrix SYN-JEM. The follow-up period (1996–2018) counted 19,357,326 person-years, where 35,511 first-time AMIs occurred, according hospital contacts. Incidence rate ratios...
Abstract Aim The aim was to investigate the association between night work during pregnancy and risk of having a male offspring with cryptorchidism. Furthermore, we explored if cryptorchidism increased based on trimester‐specific (gestational weeks 1–12 13–22) by sensitivity analyses. Methods This register‐based cohort study detailed objective working hour data for all employees in five Danish regions (primarily hospital employees) 2007 2015, retrieved from Working Hour Database (DWDH)....
Objective Research has linked early adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) with asthma development; however, existing studies have generally relied on parent report of exposure and outcome. We aimed to examine the association life ACEs empirically determined trajectories risk, using independent register information both exposures Methods Based nationwide registries, we established a study cohort 466 556 children born in Denmark (1997–2004). obtained during first 2 years (bereavement, parental...

This register-based study examined 7982 children born to mothers residing two partially contaminated residential areas Greater...
Abstract Background While direct effects of occupational exposures on an individual’s respiratory health are evident, a new paradigm is emerging the possible pre-conception exposure in offspring. We aimed to study association between parental starting before conception and asthma their offspring (at 0–15 years age). Methods studied 3985 participating Respiratory Health Northern Europe, Spain Australia (RHINESSA) generation study. Their mothers or fathers (n = 2931) previously participated...
