A few national cruciate ligament (CL) registers have been initiated with operative surveillance and outcome monitoring. No nationwide study describing CL injury has ever done.To the incidence characteristics of patients diagnosed in Sweden.Descriptive epidemiology study.Data for all a between 2001 2009 were identified from National Swedish Patient Register. Risk analysis specific incidences calculated according to age, sex, geographic region, surgery.A total number 56,659 included study,...
<b>Background:</b> We investigated cancer risk among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and whether variation by age at MS diagnosis helps to elucidate mechanisms underlying the previously reported reduced risk. also studied parents ascertain if susceptibility genes may confer protection against in relatives. <b>Methods:</b> Cox proportional hazards regression, adjusted for age, sex, area, socioeconomic index, estimated 20,276 203,951 individuals without MS, using Swedish general...
Background and purpose Multiple sclerosis ( MS ) patients are at increased infection risk. Here the influences of susceptibility, severity surveillance bias on infection‐related hospital admission assessed. Methods Swedish registers identified 20 276 with , matched 203 951 people from general population without MS. Risk first for mortality over 36 years was estimated by Poisson regression. Results associated an risk all infections, adjusted relative (and 95% confidence interval) 4.26...
Objective To study the association between Cruciate Ligament (CL) injury and development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in knee patients treated operatively with CL reconstruction compared non-operatively. Design Population based cohort study; level evidence II-2. Setting Sweden, 1987–2009. Participants All aged 15–60 years being diagnosed registered a The National Swedish Patient Register 1987 2009. Main Outcome Measures Knee osteoarthritis. Results A total 64,614 during to 2009 Sweden...
Abstract Abstract: We conducted a large population-based case-control study in Sweden to examine the association of dietary patterns and development cancers from esophagus or gastroesophageal junction. In total 185 patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma, 165 squamous-cell carcinoma, 258 gastric cardia 815 randomly selected population controls underwent face-to-face interviews. Exploratory factor analysis was used identify possible patterns. Multivariate logistic regression adjustments for...
The aim of this study was to investigate if family stress and parental attachment style are associated with body mass index (BMI) in young children, identify possible explanations.A cross-sectional survey a two-stage design used. Parents 873 children participated. They completed demographic questionnaire, the Swedish Parenthood Stress Questionnaire (SPSQ), Relationship (RQ) reported their children's television-viewing habits (as marker physical activity). Children's height, weight BMI were...
Background and purpose Cardiovascular disease ( CVD ) risk amongst multiple sclerosis MS patients appears raised, but few studies have examined an unselected patient group. course may be relevant for risk. Our aim was to assess variation by in patients. Methods The Multiple Sclerosis Register identified 7667 who received diagnosis between 1964 2005. They were matched age, period, region sex with 76 045 members of the general population without using S wedish registers. Poisson regression...
<b>Objective</b> To evaluate the association between pioglitazone use and bladder cancer risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. <b>Design</b> Retrospective cohort study using propensity score matched cohorts. <b>Settings</b> Healthcare databases from Finland, Netherlands, Sweden, United Kingdom. Data comprised country specific datasets of linked records on prescriptions, hospitals, general practitioners, cancer, deaths. <b>Participants</b> Patients diabetes who initiated...
The use of ADHD drugs among adults is controversial and has until recently not been approved for in most countries. aim was to investigate (stimulants atomoxetine) the entire adult population Nordic countries.We conducted a multinational population-based prescription register study based on five countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway Sweden). All users aged 18-64 years during 2008-2012 were included, which 2012 comprised 76,896 drug 15.8 million inhabitants.Annual prevalence increased...
Objective To assess whether concussion in childhood or adolescence is associated with subsequent multiple sclerosis (MS) risk. Previous research suggests an association, but methodological limitations included retrospective data collection and small study populations. Methods The national Swedish Patient Register (hospital diagnoses) MS were used to identify all diagnoses up 2012 among people born since 1964, when the was established. 7,292 patients matched individually 10 without by sex,...
The causes of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease are largely unknown, but this pediatric seems to result from interruption the blood supply proximal femur and is considered a vascular disease. Because maternal smoking during pregnancy influences fetal development associated with cardiovascular diseases in offspring, we hypothesized that exposure risk for also investigated other markers impaired early-life exposures.The Swedish Inpatient Register identified 852 individuals diagnosis 1983 2005,...
To assess trends in mortality and causes of death for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) relative to those without MS Sweden.Patients an diagnosis Sweden between 1964 2012 were identified the Patient Register Multiple Sclerosis Register. For this cohort study, each patient (n = 29,617) was matched 10 individuals 296,164) on sex, year birth, vital status, region residence at time Total Population The Causes Death used identify death. Cox proportional hazard models constructed whether risk...
Background and purpose Patients with multiple sclerosis ( MS ) are known to have an elevated suicide risk, but attempted is incompletely investigated. The relation between education level suicidality has not been investigated in patients. Our objective was estimate completed risks amongst Methods A total of 29 617 Swedish patients were identified through the Patient Register matched 296 164 people without from general population. Cox regression analysis estimated hazard ratios HR s) 95%...
Abstract Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are at increased risk of some cancers. Little is known about the cancer risks among carriers heterozygous for CF mutation and it hypothesized this may be associated reduced risk. Using Swedish general population‐based registers, we identified 884 patients from 1968 to 2003 3,033 their first‐degree relatives The subjects were followed birth index persons or 1958, whichever came later, until death, emigration 2003, first. Cancer compared population...
<h3>Objective</h3> To investigate the incidence of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and patient characteristics in Sweden between 1988 2013. <h3>Methods</h3> All PML diagnoses 2013 were identified National Patient Register. Information to validate diagnosis was obtained from medical records. <h3>Results</h3> Medical record review classified 108 out 250 patients (43%) as definite (n = 84), probable 4), or possible 20) according diagnostic criteria. Accurate more common records...
An association between parental smoking and multiple sclerosis (MS) in offspring has been reported. This study examined whether maternal during pregnancy is associated with MS offspring.Swedish general population registers provided prospectively recorded information on pregnancy.
