Improving cancer incidence evaluation through local government area matching
We found lower age-standardized incidence rates than those reported earlier for the Edo state population. Collecting information on the local government areas of the cancers allows better matching with the respective target population. We recommend using LGA information to improve the evaluation of population-based cancer incidence in sub-Saharan countries
Changes of occupational class differences in physical functioning
BACKGROUND: Panel studies on changes of occupational class differences in health have given varying results. The aim of this study was to examine changes of occupational class differences in physical functioning and the factors that explain these changes. METHODS: A cohort of middle-aged employees of the City of Helsinki was followed up for an average of 6 years in two surveys from 2000-2002 and 2007. Hierarchical linear random effects models wer…
Key Factors in Smoking Cessation Intervention Among 15-16-Year-Olds
The authors aimed to investigate factors associated with smoking cessation among adolescents after tobacco intervention. They examined smokers (n = 127) from one birth cohort (n = 545) in the city of Kotka in Finland. These smokers were randomized in 3 intervention groups the dentist (n = 44) and the school nurse (n = 42 groups), and a control group (n = 39). After 2 months, the authors sent a follow-up questionnaire to the initial smokers to fin…
