Abstract Using Danish longitudinal data with information about wealth for a sample of first‐time house buyers and their parents, we test whether there are direct financial transfers from parents to children in connection the purchase, or unemployment spells occurring just after when typically hold few liquid assets. First, document that child parent resources correlated. Then, introduce conditioning variables exploit panel aspect also condition on fixed unobserved factors, which arguably...

Use of oral anticoagulation therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) involves a trade-off between reduced risk ischemic stroke and an increased bleeding events. Different therapies have different safety profiles data on the societal costs both events are necessary for assessing cost-effectiveness budgetary impact treatment options. To our knowledge, no previous studies estimated AF. The objective this study was to estimate 3-years first-incident intracranial, gastrointestinal other...

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is an association between stage incident breast cancer (BC) and personal income three years after diagnosis. analysis further considered the differed among educational groups.The based on information from Danish nationwide registers. A total 7,372 women aged 30-60 diagnosed with BC, 48% metastasis, were compared 213,276 controls. Generalised linear models used estimate effect a diagnosis gross diagnosis, stratified by education...

Purpose Socioeconomic inequality in return to work after cancer treatment and rehabilitation have been documented, but less is known about its causes. This paper investigates the role played by breast stage at diagnosis comorbidity. Methods We used comprehensive Danish Cancer Registry follow 7372 women aged 30-60, who were labour force when diagnosed with 2000-06 survived least three years. Controls 213,276 without cancer. Inequalities employment outlook estimated as interaction effects...

There is increasing concern about cardiovascular disease (CVD) after breast cancer (BC). The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence different types CVD in women diagnosed with BC compared cancer-free controls as well incidence diagnosis.We performed a cohort based on data from national registries covering entire Danish population. We followed 16,505 cancer-naïve patients 2003 2007 5 years before and up 10 diagnosis 165,042 controls.We found that 15.6% were registered at least one...

The volunteer programme ‘Night Ravens’ (NR) was founded in Sweden 1987 and has, over the years, developed into a Scandinavian concept covering large areas of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Greenland Faroe Islands. NR is crime prevention initiative with adults walking streets at night identifiable ‘uniforms’ high activity. purpose this study to evaluate effects Denmark based on set-up less intrusive approach situational than, for instance, hot spot policing. analyses are longitudinal data set...

Traditionally, benefit-cost analyses focus on average benefits and costs. However, heterogeneous treatment effects and/or costs are most often present, which means that there is an efficiency potential hidden in the implementation of public programs, if policies can be targeted at those who, net costs, benefit most. We introduce defined as ratio between achieved under perfect selection individuals with significant positive program participation, actually realized Using data from a randomized...

We investigate the association between pre-cancer job dissatisfaction and return-to-work probability 3 years after a cancer diagnosis. use Danish data set combining administrative survey to breast colon survivors. find that has negative correlation with mental demands (where is driven by high-educated) physical superior low-educated). Educational gradients in of returning work are not significantly affected controlling for ability work.

Only few existing studies have investigated the mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women with breast cancer (BC). The aim of this study was to investigate CVD patients BC compared a matched control group without using national registry data.We followed 16,505 Danish diagnosed 2003-2007 up 10 years after diagnosis 165,042 controls general population. matching criteria included gender, age, region residence, and education. We performed multivariate Cox regression analyses influence...

Taking a benchmark scenario, the current situation in Switzerland, and using microsimulation technique, we compare effectiveness of various income maintenance schemes for reducing inequality poverty. A full negative tax allowance designed to eliminate poverty is shown reduce most drastically. An integrated federal linear rate 62 percent required make it viable. Aggregate work hours are reduced by approximately 10 average disposable falls 9.3 under such circumstances. participation restricted...

There are good theoretical reasons why transfers from parents likely to be important around the time of first home purchase. Transactions costs associated with trading houses make people increasing income paths prefer buy a house that is more expensive than what matches their current income. This together down-payment constraint some first-time owners borrow limit and run down liquid assets at purchase thereby making them vulnerable adverse shocks. Intergenerational can alleviate these...
