Objective Education in itself and as a proxy for socioeconomic status, may influence asthma control, but remains poorly studied adult-onset asthma. Our aim was to study the association between level of education control asthma.Methods Subjects with current onset >15 years were examined within Obstructive Lung Disease Northern Sweden (OLIN, n = 593), Seinäjoki Adult Asthma Study (SAAS, 200), West (WSAS, 301) 2009–2014 cross-sectional setting. Educational classified primary, secondary...
The use of blood eosinophil count (BEC) as a prognostic biomarker in the management conditions such asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may be complicated by factors atopy, age, sex, smoking, comorbidities. We sought to produce reference values for BEC, considering asthma, COPD, clinical allergy general adult population. West Sweden Asthma Study constitutes population-representative epidemiological cohort randomly selected adults Western Sweden. From this cohort, 1145...
Test anxiety and depression are of the major challenges experienced in students' life, considering inverse associations they have on their mental wellbeing academic performance. Evidence from Sudan reported high figures adolescent's health problems anxiety. However, studies investigating its association with exam stress lacking. We investigated prevalence severity among student setting for national boarding examination, aiming at identifying possible predictors related to student's...
Medical education can be stressful and a source of psychiatric morbidity for medical students with the potential causing serious professional personal negative consequences. With limited studies investigating this issue in Sudan, study aimed at assessing morbidity, determine stressors, evaluate mental health care seeking behavior barriers to help among Khartoum, Sudan.This was cross-sectional data collection period one month, during survey. Following ethical clearance administrative...
Abstract Background Rhinitis encompasses diverse forms. Each form has distinct pathophysiology and clinical manifestations may be influenced by differential risk factors. The association between socioeconomic status (SES) different forms of rhinitis remains poorly understood. Our aim was to examine SES variations in allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis adults. Methods Based on a 2016 postal questionnaire survey within the West Sweden Asthma Study, we analyzed data from 36,213 subjects...
Abstract Conclusion Education, but not occupation, was differentially associated with adult asthma phenotypes in the general population. Further research into socioeconomic status variation various is warranted.
Epilepsy is one of the most prevalent neurological conditions for people different age group, race, gender and socio-economic status in various nations, affecting 50 million around world; 80% them living developing countries. In Sudan, literature has well documented epilepsy stigma it related elements labelling, negative typecasting, isolation, devaluing discrimination that are significantly patients standards social life. This study focuses on understanding prevailing, types among with...
Giardiasis constitutes an important public health problem in the world. Contamination of water with fecal materials including viruses and pathogenic protozoa still represents environmental hazard, especially rural areas. The survey study evaluated relation between seropositivity some risk factors. Moreover, compared serological IgG IgM level antigen detection methods for diagnosis giardiasis. results indicate that sex distribution age were mean factors seroprevelence. In this study, sera...
Evidence abounds on the independent roles of social class and smoking in relation to obstructive airway diseases, but data are sparse impact their interaction. We evaluated whether what extent interact risk respiratory diseases adults.Data from population-based studies, West Sweden Asthma Study (WSAS, n = 23,753) Obstructive Lung Disease Northern studies (OLIN, 6519), were used, constituting randomly selected adults aged 20-75 years. Bayesian network analysis was used estimate probability...
Background Asthma is a heterogenous airway disease characterized by multiple phenotypes. Unbiased identification of these phenotypes paramount for optimizing asthma management. Objectives To identify and characterize based on broad set attributes using novel machine learning approach in representative sample Swedish adults. Methods Deep clustering was used to derive 1,895 subjects aged 16-75, drawn from the ongoing West Sweden Study. The algorithm integrated 47 variables encompassing...

Abstract Background Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is used to differentiate asthma inflammatory phenotypes and guide its management. However, data on FeNO reference values in a representative adult population limited. Objective To derive determinants of population. Methods The West Sweden Asthma Study clinical-epidemiological population- study randomly selected adults Western Sweden. From this cohort, 943 subjects participated comprehensive clinical investigations, including skin...
