Dental caries remains a common and expensive disease for both society affected individuals. Furthermore, often affect individuals' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Health economic evaluations are needed to understand how efficiently distribute dental care resources. This study aims evaluate treatment costs QALY weights active inactive adult individuals, test whether the generic instrument EQ-5D-5 L can distinguish differences in this population. A total 1200 randomly selected...
Abstract Background Dietary habits strongly influence health, with poor diets contributing to numerous deaths annually. Addressing this requires improved dietary and consistent monitoring thereof. In northern Sweden, a validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) has been used for decades, but trends show that its ability accurately measure intake diminished.

ABSTRACT Objectives The objectives were to: (i) assess the accuracy of dental data for adults obtained from Swedish Quality Register on Caries and Periodontitis (SKaPa); (ii) explore whether Latent Class Analysis (LCA) can identify groups people based caries data; (iii) characterise dental, medical behavioural characteristics in LCA‐derived classes. Methods SKaPa register compared with clinical collected by five experienced dentists a nested subgroup Malmö Offspring Study (MOS), namely...
