Ruling out risks in medical research
In medical research, it is not unusual that risks are ruled out without any specification the exact risk that was ruled out. This makes it difficult to balance expected health benefits and risk of harm when choosing between alternative treatment options. International guidelines for reporting medical research results are sufficiently specific when it comes to establishing health benefits. However, there is a lack of standards for reporting on rul…
Is perceived nervousness and anxiety a predictor of premature mortality and severe morbidity? A longitudinal follow up of the Swedish survey of living conditions
Study objective: To find out if people perceiving nervousness, uneasiness, and anxiety have excess risks of premature death and severe morbidity. Design, setting, participants: Random samples of the Swedish population aged 16–74 years in 1980–81, 1988–89, and 1995–96 were followed up for 5 and 10 years with regard to deaths and hospital admissions for different causes. Relative risks were estimated by Poisson regression, comparing those who repor…
School's out! Why earlier among children of lone parents
The aims of this population‐based study were to analyse educational attainment at ages 24–25 among children of lone parents in comparison with children living with two biological parents, to increase understanding of the factors that seem to be of major importance in increased risks of lower educational achievement and to examine how the life circumstances of non‐custodial parents influence possible differences. We found that children who grew up…
Premature mortality among lone fathers and childless men
How to act - implementing health and safety promotion in organizations
This interdisciplinary review focuses on strategies for implementing health and safety promotion activities in organizations. Theories are summarized in a checklist and illustrated by some practical examples from Sweden and abroad. The points illustrated appear obvious and logical, but they are seldom applied in practise.
How many lives is equity worth? A proposal for equity adjusted years of life saved
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To present a formula for equity adjusted years of life saved (EYLS). DESIGN: A mailed questionnaire. The survey participants were given a scenario describing a trade off between a health maximization programme and a programme that is less efficient, but eliminates social inequalities. SETTING: Swedish politicians responsible for health care in the county councils. PARTICIPANTS: A sample of 449 Swedish politicians responsible for …
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…
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…
Who stopped smoking?-Results from a panel survey of living conditions in Sweden
When to act—the appropriateness of cardiovascular disease intervention
Nearly 13 million people die each year from cardiovascular diseases and half of these deaths occur in developing countries. This article reviews the appropriateness of cardiovascular disease intervention and focuses on decision-making and the perpetual question: When is it more appropriate to act on available evidence rather than to await further evidence? A fundamental and justified principle in science is trying to falsify all formulated hypoth…
