Estimating effects of targeted public health interventions using the interventional disparity indirect effect among the exposed
Disadvantaged groups are often defined by characteristics such as income or ethnicity. Reducing health disparities by directly manipulating such exposures may be infeasible. Instead, interventions can target mediators between these exposures and health outcomes. Indirect effects estimated using mediation analysis, interventional effects or the interventional disparity measure can quantify the expected impact of such disparity-reducing interventio…
Use of the least intrusive coercion at Danish psychiatric wards
The order of used coercive measures is not consistent with the international ranking of the least intrusive types, especially in men and in younger adults
Self-assessed health status and associated mortality in endocarditis
Risk of major cardiovascular events according to educational level before and after the initial Covid-19 public lockdown
BACKGROUND: During the COVID-19 pandemic, decreasing rates of hospitalisations for cardiovascular disease raised concerns for undertreatment, particularly for vulnerable groups. We investigated how the initial COVID-19 public lockdown, impacted the risk of being hospitalised with a major cardiovascular event (MCE: myocardial infarction/stroke/heart failure) according to educational level. METHODS: We grouped all Danish residents according to educ…
Associations of health literacy with socioeconomic position, health risk behavior, and health status
Despite a relatively highly educated population, the prevalence of inadequate health literacy is high. Inadequate health literacy is strongly associated with a low socioeconomic position, poor health status, inactivity, and overweight, but to a lesser extent with health behavior factors such as smoking and high alcohol consumption
Infancy weight gain, parental socioeconomic position, and childhood overweight and obesity
Both rapid and very rapid weight gain were associated with substantially higher risks of COO but these associations were not modified by SEP. This indicates that promotion of healthy weight gain should take place in all population groups irrespective of their SEP
Association between Type D personality and outcomes in patients with non-ischemic heart failure
Perceived stress as a risk factor of unemployment
Perceived everyday life stress nearly doubled the risk of subsequent unemployment in a working population. No statistically significant interactions between SES and perceived stress were found. This indicates that stress prevention among the working population should not solely focus on stress in the workplace but also include stress from everyday life
Social capital and frequent attenders in general practice
This study suggests that for women, some aspects of social capital are associated with frequent attendance in general practice, and the statistically significant dimensions belonged to both cognitive and structural aspects of social capital. This association was not seen for men. This indicates a multifaceted and heterogeneous relationship between social capital and frequent attendance among genders
Associations between the structural and functional aspects of social relations and poor mental health
Both structural and functional aspects of social relations were associated with poor mental health in our study. Rarely being in contact with friends and a lack of network reachability were associated with poor mental health. Likewise, low levels of emotional and instrumental support were associated with poor mental health
The indirect and direct pathways between physical fitness and academic achievement on commencement in post-compulsory education in a historical cohort of Danish school youth
Physical fitness had a positive effect on post-compulsory education commencement. A substantial part of this effect was mediated through academic achievement
Mental health and school dropout across educational levels and genders
Poor mental health was significantly associated to dropout among students in vocational and higher education. Males in higher education had five times the risk of dropout when reporting poor mental health, while no such association was found for females
Socioeconomic inequality and mortality - a regional Danish cohort study
Socioeconomic inequality influenced mortality substantially even when adjusted for a range of determinants that might explain the association. Further studies are needed to understand this important relationship
Associations between follow-up screening after gestational diabetes and early detection of diabetes – a register based study
Participation in follow-up screening after gestational diabetes is low in the North Denmark Region. Follow-up screening ensures early detection of diabetes and initiation of treatment. Our results emphasize the importance of development of interventions to improve early detection and prevention of diabetes after gestational diabetes
Individual social capital and survival
We found differential effects of social capital in men compared to women. The predictive effects on all-cause mortality of four specific dimensions of social capital varied. Gender stratified analysis and the use of multiple indicators to measure social capital are thus warranted in future research
Hospital Variation in Use of Secondary Preventive Medicine After Discharge for First Acute Myocardial Infarction During 1995–2004
OBJECTIVE: To examine temporal trends in hospital use of secondary preventive medicine after discharge for first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Denmark. DESIGN: Observational study from national administrative databases of 60,339 patients who survived a first AMI at 73 acute-care hospitals during 1995-2004. OUTCOME MEASURES: At least 1 prescription claim for angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, beta-blockers, or statins within 90…
Use of statins and beta-blockers after acute myocardial infarction according to income and education
OBJECTIVE: To study the initiation of and long-term refill persistency with statins and beta-blockers after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) according to income and education. DESIGN AND SETTING: Linkage of individuals through national registers of hospitalisations, drug dispensation, income and education. PARTICIPANTS: 30 078 patients aged 30-74 years surviving first hospitalisation for AMI in Denmark between 1995 and 2001. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE…
Mortality after acute myocardial infarction according to income and education
Objective: To study how income and educational level influence mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Design and setting: Prospective analysis using individual level linkage of registries in Denmark. Participants: All patients 30–74 years old hospitalised for the first time with AMI in Denmark in 1995–2002. Main outcome measures: Relative risk (RR) of 30 day mortality and long term mortality (31 days until 31 December 2003) associated…
