Data from 81 countries was used to estimate global prevalence of intimate partner violence against women.
To quantify global consumption of key dietary fats and oils by country, age, sex in 1990 2010.Data were identified, obtained, assessed among adults 16 age- sex-specific groups from surveys worldwide on saturated, omega 6, seafood 3, plant trans fats, cholesterol. We included 266 (83% nationally representative) comprising 1,630,069 unique individuals, representing 113 187 countries 82% the population. A multilevel hierarchical Bayesian model accounted for differences national regional levels...
Abstract This study examines the association between board composition and voluntary disclosure in annual reports. In particular, it addresses incentives within agency theory framework for both inside independent directors to additional information voluntarily. Further, provides evidence on relation overall total components of disclosure, such as forward looking, strategic, non-financial historical financial disclosures composition. Our sample is based 181 Australian companies. We have...

Objective: To determine the cost effectiveness of a magnetic resonance imaging scan (MRI) within 5 days injury compared with usual management occult scaphoid fracture. Methods: All patients suspected fractures in five hospitals were invited to participate randomised controlled trial treatment or without an MRI scan. Healthcare costs compared, and analysis use this scenario was performed. Results: Twenty eight 37 identified randomised: 17 control group, 11 group. The groups similar at...
Background Post Acute COVID Syndrome (PACS), a complex and poorly understood condition characterised by persistent symptoms following the acute phase of COVID-19 infection, has emerged as significant global health concern. Healthcare workers who had been at forefront pandemic response are heightened risk contracting virus subsequently developing PACS. Therefore, we aim to determine prevalence factors for PACS among healthcare infected with COVID-19. Methods A cross-sectional study was...
Last year's UN high level meeting sought to galvanise the international community into scaling up its response escalating global burden of non-communicable diseases. With resources tight, <b>D Chisholm and colleagues</b> examine which interventions should be given priority for action investment
Abstract: The incidence of severe neurological complications associated with measles or rubella vaccination is low. A 9‐year‐old girl developed urinary retention and lower limb paralysis 16 days after vaccination. Her illness was diagnosed as transverse myelitis. Clinical, laboratory magnetic resonance image findings were consistent her diagnosis. She treated steroids discharged only mild weakness.
We present a method (The CHD Prevention Model) for modelling the incidence of fatal and nonfatal coronary heart disease (CHD) within various risk percentiles an adult population. The model provides relatively simple tool lifetime prediction subgroups It allows estimation absolute primary in different populations will help identify population where prevention is most appropriate cost-effective.The distribution Australian was modelled, based on prevalence risk, individual estimates integrated...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Information on levels and trends of risk factors is essential for policy making. However, very few comprehensive consistent global estimates are available. We collected a database population level summaries systolic blood pressure (SBP), body mass index (BMI), serum total cholesterol (TC) fasting plasma glucose (FPG) estimated since 1980. <h3>Methods</h3> For each factor, we searched published articles, analysed health surveys, included unpublished reports. excluded...
Although associations between risk factors such as hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia, cardiovascular disease (CVD) are well-established it is not known to what extent these similar in people from different ethnicities or regions. This study aims measure the contributions of systolic blood pressure (SBP) total cholesterol (TC) ischaemic heart (IHD) stroke Thai population.Data a cohort were used for analyses. Participants 2702 males 797 females aged 35 54 years at start 1985. Cox...

Abstract Background Inpatient service utilization rate is a key indicator for estimating the performance of health care systems on global, regional, and national levels. Methods We collected 1378 source-years data, including administrative sources, nationally representative surveys, government reports covering 130 countries overall, 29 which are in European region from 1990 to 2020. admission was defined as an overnight stay at formal healthcare facility any cause. The data underwent age-...
