  • Mortality in Western Australian seniors with chronic respiratory diseases

    Open AccessKristjana Einarsdóttir, David B Preen et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2010

    Older patients with CRD not using ICS experienced the worst survival in this study and may benefit from an escalation in therapeutic regime. Males had a higher risk of death than females, which was more pronounced in the highest pharmacotherapy level group. Hence, primary health care should more actively direct disease management to mild-to-moderate disease patients

  • Regular Primary Care Decreases the Likelihood of Mortality in Older People With Epilepsy

    Kristjana Einarsdóttir, David B Preen et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2010References: 22

METHODS: We used routinely collected, whole-population linked, administrative medical data to ascertain the study population, the exposure, and outcomes. We identified 3…

RESEARCH DESIGN: The cumulative risk of readmission following an index admission was calculated for index and reference subjects using linked hospital morbidity, death, and electoral roll data in cohort, cohort-crossover, and cohort-comparison-crossover designs. SUBJECTS: Index subjects were defined as any man…

The results were compared with those reported from the Oxford Record Linkage Study. DESIGN: Mortality records for those aged 65 years and over were linked to inpatient hospital morbidity records with a date of separation within one year before death. Comparative inpatien…

  • Banning tobacco sponsorship

    C D’arcy J Holman, C D Holman et al.ARTICLETobacco Control1997

    A comprehensive ban on tobacco sponsorship linked to health promotion activities funded by tobacco tax delivers potential public health benefits that exceed those achieved by prohibition of tobacco sponsorship alone. Tobacco replacement venues offer opportunities for environmental modification, promotion of anti-smoking messages, and targeting groups that are hard to reach
