The impact of multimorbidity among adults with cardiovascular diseases on healthcare costs in Indonesia
CVDs and multimorbidity are associated with higher healthcare costs, and the association is stronger in non-subsidized NHI households. Households' subsidy status can be construed as indirect socioeconomic inequality that hampers access to healthcare facilities. Efforts to combat cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and multimorbidity should consider their distinct impacts on subsidized households. The effort includes affirmative action on non-communica…
Effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare utilization among older adults with cardiovascular diseases and multimorbidity in Indonesia
Healthcare utilization among patients with chronic diseases decreased significantly during COVID-19 and consistently across different chronic diseases and regions. To cope with the unmet needs of healthcare utilization in the context of the pandemic, the healthcare system needs to be strengthened to cater to the needs of the population-at-risk, especially for patients with CVDs and multimorbidity
Place or patient as the driver of regional variation in healthcare spending – Discrepancies by category of care
We study how much regional variation in healthcare spending is driven by place- and patient-specific factors using a random sample of 53,620 regional migrants in Sweden. We find notable differences depending on the category of care, with place-specific factors having a significantly larger impact on specialized outpatient care compared to inpatient and pharmaceutical care. The place effect is estimated to 75% of variation in specialized outpatien…
Inte den typiska höginkomsttagaren.” Självuppfattning och klassidentifikation bland höginkomsttagare i Sverige
[“Not the typical high earner.” Self-perception and class identification among high-income earners in Sweden] Income inequality has increased in Sweden in recent decades, and high-income earners are among the winners. However, despite its privileged position, the group has been largely absent from research on class. In Mikael Svensson and Lena Sohl’s article, we therefore get a much-needed insight into Swedish high-income earners’ class identific…
Cost–Benefit Evaluation of an Organizational-Level Intervention Program for Decreasing Sickness Absence among Public Sector Employees in Sweden
Work-related illnesses create a vast economic burden for employers and society. Organizational-level workplace interventions are recommended to prevent these illnesses, but the knowledge about the economic benefits of such interventions is scarce. The study aimed to evaluate the economic benefit of an organizational-level workplace program for decreasing sickness absence. The program contained a monetary support approach (MSA) and an approach com…
Production loss and sick leave caused by antibiotic resistance
Estimating the effect of antibiotic resistance in terms of temporary production loss is important to gain a better understanding of the economic consequences of antibiotic resistance in society and, by extension, enable more effective resource allocation to combat further emergence of resistance. Society's economic costs of antibiotic resistance are, however, probably much greater than those of sick leave due to disease alone
Cost-effectiveness of childhood pneumococcal vaccination program in Ethiopia
Compared to the WHO's suggested cost-effectiveness threshold value, the results indicate that the general childhood PCV 10 vaccination was a cost-effective intervention in the Butajira rural health program site
Free and universal, but unequal utilization of primary health care in the rural and urban areas of Mongolia
Income-related inequality in primary health care utilization exists in Mongolia and the pattern differs across geographical areas. Significant pro-poor inequality observed in urban family health centers indicates that their more effective gatekeeping role is necessary. Eliminating financial and non-financial access barriers for the poor and higher need groups in rural areas would make a key contribution to reducing pro-rich inequality in inpatien…
Effects on alcohol use of a Swedish school-based prevention program for early adolescents
The lack of positive effects highlights the need for policy-makers and public health officials need to carefully consider and evaluate prevention programs in order to ensure that they are worthwhile from school, health, and societal perspectives
Catastrophic health expenditure and impoverishment in Mongolia
Despite the high coverage of social health insurance, a significant proportion of the population incurred catastrophic health expenditures and was forced into poverty due to out-of-pocket payments for health care
Preference-based health-related quality of life among victims of bullying
Demographic determinants of incident experience and risk perception
This paper analyzes demographic determinants of incident experience and risk perception, as well as the relationship between the two, for eight different risk domains. Analyses were conducted by merging the results of a Swedish population-based survey, which includes approximately 15,000 individuals, with demographic and socio-economic register data. Being male was associated with higher incident experience yet a lower risk perception for nearly …
The economic cost of brain disorders in Europe
Background and purpose: In 2005, we presented for the first time overall estimates of annual costs for brain disorders (mental and neurologic disorders) in Europe. This new report presents updated, more accurate, and comprehensive 2010 estimates for 30 European countries. Methods: One‐year prevalence and annual cost per person of 19 major groups of disorders are based on ‘best estimates’ derived from systematic literature reviews by panels of exp…

Lemming–Food Plant Interactions, Density Effects, and Cyclic Dynamics on the Siberian Tundra
Theory predicts that trophic interactions can produce cyclic dynamics of microtine rodents, but that in addition, social interactions are necessary to create the cyclicity. We tested the induced defence hypothesis as a component driving multi-annual cycles by analyzing data on Siberian lemming (Lemmus sibiricus Kerr) populations and the levels of trypsin inhibitors (TI) and free proteins (SPP) in their food plants. We collected data at 12 sites a…
