The main purpose of this way of working is to bring together organizations and their expertise to solve defined problems.

The study population consisted of 6838 (females 51.5%) participants from the …
Parental death due to natural death causes during childhood abbreviates the time to a diagnosis of a psychiatric disorder in the offspring
Parental death before adulthood has been shown to increase offspring's risk of poor health and adverse social consequences. In a sample of 422 subjects with parental death (334 (79.1%) due to natural causes), and 6172 matched controls, those with parental death were given a diagnosis of a psychiatric disorder up to 28 years of age earlier than their controls (10-year survival proportions: 88.6% vs. 93.1%, p = 0.001). Our findings indicate that ps…

Family-Focused Preventive Interventions With Cancer Cosurvivors
Health promotion and preventive action in the context of public health interventions for highly prevalent, long-term conditions such as cancer are rarely geared toward the family as a whole. Yet family members, as cancer cosurvivors, must manage their own substantial stress and multiple caregiving responsibilities and often constitute a critical nexus between individual patients and clinicians. We drew on 2 examples of cancer cosurvivorship from …
