Summary Background The contribution of hereditary factors to the development diverticular disease ( DD ) colon is unknown. Prevalence and location diverticula differ in Western world compared Asia several case reports describing families with have been published. Aim To assess heritability a large population‐based sample twins. Methods Swedish Twin Registry was cross‐linked Inpatient Registry. All twins, born between 1886 1980 not dead before 1969, discharge diagnosis were identified. Twins...
While treatment for breast cancer has been refined and overall survival improved, there is concern that the incidence of brain metastases increased. We identified patients in Sweden with incident 1998–2006 National Cancer Register, matched these to Patient Register obtain information on hospital admissions distant metastases. Hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed Cox regression as estimates relative risk. Among 50 528 patients, 696 (1.4%) admitted during median 3.5...
Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2011; 34: 675–681 Summary Background Colon cancer and diverticular disease are most common in the Western world their incidences tend to increase with advancing age. The association between diseases remains unclear. Aim To analyse risk of colon after hospitalisation for disease. Methods Nationwide case–control study. A total 41 037 patients during 1992–2006, identified from Swedish Cancer Register were included. Each case was matched two control subjects. From...
Background The surgical treatment of femur shaft fractures in children is changing, and the time spent hospital shorter than before. purpose this nationwide epidemiology study to report incidence pediatric Sweden during 1987 2005 by age, sex, cause injury, severity seasonal variation, analyze change incidence, modalities, length stay over time. Methods Children (N=4984) with a diagnostic code for fracture were selected from Swedish National Hospital Discharge Registry. Results overall annual...
This study makes an explorative overview on two main research topics in economics of wildlife management: determination population sizes and policy design. The results point out a large comprehensive each these issues, particular the estimation values costs wildlife, where this information is necessary for size. A drawback that most value cost studies do not relate their estimates to size, which limits usability efficient Most valuation estimate recreational hunting, can range between 13 545...
To investigate whether psoriasis is affected by the use of serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).A population-based cohort study.The general adult population with plaque in Sweden between 1997 and 2006.A total 69 830 patients were identified National Patient Register. Whether study subjects exposed to SSRIs was through Swedish Prescribed Drug The SSRI-exposed (n = 1282) had a prescription for dispensed twice during 6 months at pharmacy 1 July 2006 April 2008, wash-out period year or longer....
The role of stress in the pathogenesis preeclampsia has only been investigated a few studies, and findings are not conclusive. We analyzed whether maternal bereavement shortly before or during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk preeclampsia. conducted cohort study singleton births Denmark 1978-2008 Sweden 1973-2006 (n=4 122 490) by linking national population-based registers. Mothers were considered exposed to if they lost parent, sibling, partner, child year (n=124 553). was...
Increasing evidence suggests that maternal stress during pregnancy may influence outcomes. In a nationwide Swedish study including almost 3 million births taking place 1973-2006, we investigated whether bereavement is associated with stillbirth risk. Through individual record linkage between several population-based registers, obtained information on demographic, health-related, and pregnancy-related factors deaths of mothers' first-degree relatives. There were 11,071 stillbirths (3.8 per...
ABSTRACT Purpose To compare birth outcomes between women exposed and unexposed to the antiviral medications oseltamivir or zanamivir during pregnancy. Methods This was an observational cohort study including who gave singletons in Sweden 2005–2007 their infants. We obtained information from national health registers evaluated risks of low Apgar score, small for gestational age (SGA), weight, preterm delivery, congenital malformations, birth‐related death (stillbirth neonatal combined),...

Azacitidine, first‐line treatment for the majority of higher‐risk , associated aggravated thrombocytopenia during first cycles. Eltrombopag a novel thrombopoietin receptor agonist, which also has been shown to inhibit proliferation leukaemia cell lines vitro . This phase I clinical trial was designed explore safety and tolerability combining eltrombopag...
