Do adult children increase the chances of receiving the recommended hospital treatment among older adults with heart disease
BACKGROUND: We investigated whether having children and their socioeconomic resources are associated with receiving coronary angiogram (CAG) and coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among older adults with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and unstable angina pectoris. METHODS: The study included 13 046 older adults diagnosed with first-time NSTEMI and unstable angina pectoris betwe…
Structural changes in a Danish social housing area
They are breaking us into pieces’
Urban regeneration often intends to improve the physical, economic, and social environment of disadvantaged neighborhoods. However, evidence on the consequences of such interventions on place-based social relations is limited in Scandinavia. This study investigates the relationship between urban regeneration and diverse forms of place-based social relations among middle-aged and older social housing residents in Denmark. A longitudinal multi-meth…
Impact of offspring and their educational level on readmission and death among older adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background It is well described that there is social inequality in the disease course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but the impact of social relations is less explored. We aimed to investigate the impact of adult offspring and their educational level on readmission and death among older adults with COPD. Methods In total, 71 084 older adults born 1935–53 with COPD diagnosed at age ≥65 years in 2000–2018 were included. Multistat…
Is urban regeneration associated with antidepressants or sedative medication users
BACKGROUND: Area deprivation is associated with adverse mental health outcomes. In Denmark, urban regeneration is being used to dissolve concentrated socio-economic area deprivation and ethnic segregation. However, evidence on how urban regeneration affects mental health of residents is ambiguous partly due to methodological challenges. This study investigates if urban regeneration affects users of antidepressant and sedative medication among res…
The importance of close next of kin for independent living and readmissions among older Swedish hip fracture patients
We investigate the importance of adult children and/or cohabitation with a partner for older hip fracture patients' probability of independent living, public home care use and hospital readmission. Data from 35,066 Swedish hip fracture patients between 2012 and 2017, aged 65 years, and living at home at the time of the fracture in the Swedish Registry for Hip Fracture Patients and Treatment were linked with national registers. We applied adjusted…
Mortality Following Trajectories of Mobility Limitations
Objective: How are trajectories of mobility limitations (MLs) among older adults associated with mortality? Do social factors modify these associations? Method: Group-based trajectory modeling was used to identify four trajectories of MLs over a period of 4.5 years among 3,055 older Danes. Mortality analyses were conducted using additive hazard regression models. Results: Compared to older adults without MLs, older adults with high level of MLs w…
