Capability inequality
A better understanding of population distributions of capability and inequalities is relevant for public health and social welfare. We surveyed 3639 representatively sampled individuals on background characteristics and on self-reported capability using the capability-adjusted life years Sweden (CALY-SWE) questionnaire, which enables aggregating attribute-level answers into a quality weight score. We analysed the resulting capability distribution…
Eliciting a value set for the Swedish Capability-Adjusted Life Years instrument (Caly-SWE)
We elicited a value set for CALY-SWE for use in economic evaluations of interventions with broad social consequences
Sequential Multiple Imputation for Real-World Health-Related Quality of Life Missing Data after Bariatric Surgery
One of the main challenges for the successful implementation of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessments is missing data. The current study examined the feasibility and validity of a sequential multiple imputation (MI) method to deal with missing values in the longitudinal HRQoL data from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry. All patients in the SOReg who received bariatric surgery between 1 January 2011 and 31 March 2019 ( n = 47,…
Reference data among general population and known-groups validity among hypertensive population of the EQ-5D-5L in Vietnam
This study has provided EQ-5D-5L population norms for the general population and evidence for known-groups validity of the EQ-5D-5L instrument among hypertensive people in Vietnam
Does health insurance contribute to improved utilization of health care services for the elderly in rural Tanzania? A cross-sectional study
Background: Health care systems in developing countries such as Tanzania depend heavily on out-of-pocket payments. This mechanism contributes to inefficiency, inequity and cost, and is a barrier to patients seeking access to care. There are efforts to expand health insurance coverage to vulnerable groups, including older adults, in Sub-Saharan African countries.Objective: To analyse the association between health insurance and health service use …
An EQ-5D-5L Value Set for Vietnam
This is the first value set for EQ-5D-5L based on social preferences obtained from a nationally representative sample in Vietnam. The value set will likely play a key role in economic evaluations and health technology assessments in Vietnam
Can survey data facilitate local priority setting? Experience from the Igunga and Nzega districts in Tanzania
Does unemployment contribute to poorer health-related quality of life among Swedish adults
In our study, we show that the health deterioration from unemployment is likely to be large, as our estimated effect implies an almost 10% worse health (in absolute terms) from being unemployed compared to being employed. This further highlights that unemployment is a public health problem that needs more focus. Our study also raises further demands for determining for whom unemployment has the most negative effects and thus suggesting groups of …
A cost-effectiveness analysis of a community based CVD program in Sweden based on a retrospective register cohort
Our analysis shows that Västerbotten Intervention Programme is extremely cost-effective in relation to the Swedish threshold value (SEK 500000 per QALY gained or Euro 53,000 per QALY gained). Other research has also shown a favorable effect of Västerbotten Intervention Programme on population health and the health gap. We therefore argue that all health care organizations, acting in settings reasonably similar to Sweden, have good incentive to im…
Out-of-pocket expenditures for childbirth in the context of the Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY) cash transfer program to promote facility births
OOPE is prevalent among JSY beneficiaries as well in home deliveries. In JSY, OOPE varies by income quintile: wealthier quintiles pay more OOPE. However the cash incentive is adequate enough to provide a net gain for all quintiles. OOPE was largely due to indirect costs and not direct medical payments. The program seems to be effective in providing financial protection for the most vulnerable groups
Equity in adherence to and effect of prenatal food and micronutrient supplementation on child mortality

Inequalities in institutional delivery uptake and maternal mortality reduction in the context of cash incentive program, Janani Suraksha Yojana
Proportion of women giving birth in health institutions has increased sharply in India since the introduction of cash incentive program, Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY) in 2005. JSY was intended to benefit disadvantaged population who had poor access to institutional care for childbirth and who bore the brunt of maternal deaths. Increase in institutional deliveries following the implementation of JSY needs to be analysed from an equity perspective. …
The impact of economic growth on health care utilization
The results suggest that households with economic growth are better off also in terms of health services utilization. Efforts for reducing inequalities in health should therefore consider the inequality in income growth over time
Health coaching to promote healthier lifestyle among older people at moderate risk for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and depression

Risk equations for the development of worsened glucose status and type 2 diabetes mellitus in a Swedish intervention program
The equations could be used to identify individuals with increased risk to develop any of the three pre-diabetic states or T2D and to adapt prevention strategies
Health-related quality of life in adolescents with screening-detected celiac disease, before and one year after diagnosis and initiation of gluten-free diet, a prospective nested case-referent study
The findings of this study suggest that adolescents with unrecognized CD experience similar HRQoL as their peers without CD, both before and one year after diagnosis and initiation of gluten-free diet, except for boys in the dimension of pain at follow-up
Can the impact of gender equality on health be measured? a cross-sectional study comparing measures based on register data with individual survey-based data
No association was found between gender equality in companies, measured by register-based index (OGGI), and health. However, perceived gender equality at work positively affected women's self-rated health but not men's. Further investigations are necessary to determine whether the results are fully credible given the contemporary health patterns and positions in the labour market of women and men or whether the results are driven by selection pat…
Gender equality in couples and self-rated health - A survey study evaluating measurements of gender equality and its impact on health
Men and women perceive and report gender equality differently. This means that it is necessary not only to be conscious of the methods and measurements used to quantify men's and women's opinions of gender equality, but also to be aware of the implications for health outcomes
Sickness absence in gender-equal companies A register study at organizational level
Even though employees at gender-equal companies had more days on sickness benefit, the differences between men and women in this measure were smaller in gender-equal companies. Gender equality appears to alter health patterns, converging the differences between men and women
Measuring the gender gap in organizations
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a register‐based index that could provide a practical tool for gathering information and increasing our knowledge on gender equality at organizational level. Design/methodology/approach Based on Swedish gender policy and information available in public registers, six variables were chosen. For each variable, a gender gap was calculated as the ratio between the sexes, with the larger figure always tr…

Health-related quality of life, and its determinants, among older people in rural Vietnam
HRQoL at old age is at a high level, and varies substantially according to socioeconomic factors. Its determinants should be addressed in social and health policies designed to improve health of older people, especially among the most vulnerable groups
Inequality in mortality in Vietnam during a period of rapid transition
Remaining life expectancy among older people in a rural area of Vietnam
There is a trend of increasing life expectancy among older people in rural areas of Vietnam. Inequalities in life expectancy exist between socioeconomic groups, especially between different poverty levels and also patterns of living arrangements. These inequalities should be addressed by appropriate social and health policies with stronger targeting of the poorest and most disadvantaged groups
Pioneers and laggards - Is the effect of gender equality on health dependent on context
Parental share in public and domestic spheres
Study objective: Examine the relation between aspects of gender equality and population health based on the premise that sex differences in health are mainly caused by the gender system. Setting/participants: All Swedish couples (98 240 people) who had their first child together in 1978. Design: The exposure of gender equality is shown by the parents’ division of income and occupational position (public sphere), and parental leave and temporary c…

The Dialectic of Health and Suffering
This study's aim is to understand the health of young people (ages 13 to 19) from an ontological perspective. The authors take an abductive research approach to understand the experience of health. Fifteen interviews are analyzed and interpreted by a hermneneutic method. From the viewpoint of the young, health is a process of becoming, which can be identified as a dialectic alternation between opposites: the experiences of having and not having s…

Clinical Application Research
Clinical caring science researchers contribute, by means of various participatory research efforts, to bring clinical practice closer to the ideals of caring. These research efforts have in the main been developed from classical action research rooted in critical theory. In this article, the authors launch an alternative research approach called clinical application research, the basis of which can be traced to the interpretative paradigm, or her…
What is the “golden standard” for assessing population-based interventions?—problems of dilution bias
OBJECTIVES: To identify different types of dilution bias in population-based interventions and to suggest measures for handling these methodological problems. DESIGN: Literature review plus analysis of data from a population-based intervention against cardiovascular disease in a Swedish municipality. MAIN RESULTS: The effects of an intervention on mortality and morbidity were much more diluted by non-intervening factors, dissemination to areas ou…
Cost effectiveness and equity of a community based cardiovascular disease prevention programme in Norsjö, Sweden
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the cost effectiveness and equity of a community based cardiovascular disease prevention programme. DESIGN: A prospective cross sectional design. SETTING: A community based intervention to reduce cardiovascular disease in the district of Norsjö (n = 5500), Sweden. The intervention was aimed at both the general population and at individuals thought to be at special risk, the emphasis being on changing dietary habits an…

Can social class differentials in hypertension be explained by the general susceptibility hypothesis
The neglected effects of lifestyle interventions in cost-effectiveness analysis
A review of cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis studies applied to health promotion, and lifestyle interventions in particular, indicates that many benefits and some risks of these measures are not considered in the analyses. This may bias the results and lead to a less than optimal use of available resources. The basic measure of health benefits has usually been mortality for a single disease, in spite of the fact that a change in lifes…

Preventive home visits postpone mortality – a controlled trial with time-limited results
Preventive home visits in a healthy older population can postpone mortality in a Swedish context if they are carried out by professional health-workers in a structured way. When the home visit programme ended the effect on mortality disappeared. These findings are dependent on contextual factors that make it difficult to form general policy recommendations
Household out-of-pocket payments for illness
The main findings indicate that catastrophic health care spending for a household is not usually the result of one single disastrous event, but rather a series of events and is related more to "every-day illnesses" in a developing country context than to more spectacular events such as injuries or heart illnesses
Parental share in public and domestic spheres
