Modern artificial intelligence techniques have solved some previously intractable problems and produced impressive results in selected medical domains. One of their drawbacks is that they often need very large amounts of data. Pre-existing datasets in the form of national cancer registries, image/genetic depositories and clinical datasets already exist and have been used for research. In theory, t

Background: The Danish National Patient Registry is a major resource for Danish epidemiology. Only a few studies have been conducted to check the validity of the reporting of systemic anticancer treatments. In this study, we assessed this validity for a range of cancer types over a long period of time. Patients and Methods: We extracted systemic anticancer treatment procedures from the Danish Nati

The DMSKW is a valuable structure in providing safety data on drug exposure during pregnancy and lactation in combination with information on disease activity up to 6 years postpartum. This article will be the reference for describing the methods of future publications from the DMSKW. Read the paper at https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17562864211054956

Sibling comparison studies have the attractive feature of being able to control for unmeasured confounding by factors that are shared within families. However, there is sometimes a concern that these studies may have poor generalizability (external validity) due to the implicit restriction to families that are covariate-discordant, i.e., those families where at least two siblings have different le

Collinearity can be a problem in regression models. When examining the effects of an exposure at different time points, constrained distributed lag models can alleviate some of the problems caused by collinearity. Still, some consequences of collinearity may remain and they are often unexplored. We aimed to illustrate the effects of collinearity in the context of distributed lag models, and to pro

Methods for calculating health indicators profoundly influence understanding of and action on population health and inequities. Age-standardization can be useful and is commonly applied to account for differences in age structures when comparing health indicators across groups. Age-standardized rates have well-acknowledged limitations, including that they are relative indices for comparison, and n

Inverse probability weights are increasingly used in epidemiological analysis, and estimation and application of weights to address a single bias are well discussed in the literature. Weights to address multiple biases simultaneously (i.e. a combination of weights) have almost exclusively been discussed related to marginal structural models in longitudinal settings where treatment weights (estimat

When research questions require the use of precious samples, expensive assays or equipment, or labor-intensive data collection or analysis, nested case–control or case–cohort sampling of observational cohort study participants can often reduce costs. These study designs have similar statistical precision for addressing a singular research question, but case–cohort studies have broader efficiency a

Quantifying the impact of natural disasters or epidemics is critical for guiding policy decisions and interventions. When the effects of an event are long-lasting and difficult to detect in the short term, the accumulated effects can be devastating. Mortality is one of the most reliably measured health outcomes, partly due to its unambiguous definition. As a result, excess mortality estimates are

Infektionssjukdomar är vanliga och kan i de flesta fall behandlas effektivt inom dagens sjukvård. Ökad antibiotikaresistens samt nya virus förändrar dock förutsättningarna för behandling av infektioner och mer kunskap behövs om hur våra kroppar interagerar med olika bakterier och virus så vi kan ta fram nya behandlingar och förebygga sjukdom.

Ljudstörningar i öppna kontorsmiljöer tycks orsaka stress- och hälsoproblem hos en allt större andel av den kontorsarbetande befolkningen. Det är därför viktigt att försöka hitta lösningar som kan minska ljudstörningar och därmed bidra till en förbättrad arbetsmiljö och relaterade hälsoproblem, stressymptom och sjukskrivningstal. En möjlig lösning för att minska ljudstörningar kan vara ljudmaskeri
