Out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures for childbirth in Bangladesh have increased substantially, intensifying financial pressure on lower-income households. While wealthier groups historically bore higher delivery costs, recent trends indicate a narrowing gap in spending across socioeconomic strata. This study investigates the drivers of this convergence in delivery-related expenditures between 2014 an
BackgroundWomen’s empowerment may influence non-communicable disease (NCD) risk. However, evidence on these associations among women in Bangladesh remains limited. This study examined the associations between women’s empowerment and the prevalence of selected non-communicable conditions among ever-married reproductive-aged women in Bangladesh.MethodsData from the 2022 Bangladesh Demographic and He
BACKGROUND: Accreditation of cancer centres aims to deliver high-quality, person-centered care and underscores the integration with education, research, and innovation. Over the past decade, cancer centres in the Nordic countries have engaged in accreditation processes through the Organisation of European Cancer Institutes (OECI).OBJECTIVE: This study provides an overview of a rapidly evolving lan
Nucleotides and coenzymes play critical roles in energy metabolism and cellular signaling and as building blocks of nucleic acids. This work addresses the challenges in the measurement of the phosphorylated metabolites using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, which facilitates the separation and detection of polar metabolites. Here, we present optimized H
Background and aims: We examined whether the excess cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among adults with steatotic liver disease (SLD) subtypes could be reduced or eliminated through joint control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Methods and results: This prospective cohort study included 291,995 participants f
Early-life adversity negatively affects morbidity and survival in late life, but knowledge is limited about effects on women’s reproduction and reproductive health. To deepen our understanding of the full effects of disease exposure in early life, including long-term consequences, we study women’s reproductive outcomes and their offspring’s health. Using the Scanian Economic Demographic Database a
Bacteriophages exert strong selective pressure on bacterial populations and play a central role in shaping microbial evolution. In response to phage predation, bacteria have evolved diverse antiphage defence mechanisms that interfere with viral replication through a wide range of molecular strategies. Recent genomic studies have revealed a rapidly expanding repertoire of candidate defence systems,
Abstract INTRODUCTION Countries have varying, limited healthcare budgets for emerging disease-modifying therapies. Cost-effectiveness analysis, combined with country-level cost-effectiveness thresholds, can be used to estimate value-based prices (VBPs) for lecanemab and donanemab across 174 countries. METHODS The cost-effectiveness of lecanemab and donanemab was estimated using incremental cost an
Context: Life satisfaction (LS) is associated with health and longevity but decreases after spinal cord injury (SCI). Yet, little is known about changes in LS over time, many years after SCI. Objectives: To assess changes in LS over six years among older adults aging with long-term SCI, determine how changes in LS are associated with sex, age, injury characteristics, and with changes in secondary

The self-assembly of magnetic nanoparticles under external magnetic fields holds great potential for the facile fabrication of functional magnetic components with a wide range of applications. This work employs a technique based on electrically charged gas-phase magnetic nanoparticles, demonstrating an additional level of control when forming one-dimensional assemblies, so-called nanochains, as an
Purpose: Multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTMs) are an integral component of cancer care. Increasingly, virtual MDTMs are used to grant high-quality treatment recommendations across health-care regions, which expands and develops the local MDTM team to a regional or national expert network. We investigated health professionals’ experiences from national, virtual MDTMs for rare cancer with a focus
Background: Management of cancer-related pain relies on the access to opioids. When regular opioids as morphine are not tolerated or are insufficient, adjuvant opioids as methadone are an affordable and effective analgesic. Aim: The aim of the project was to describe the pattern of use and clinical experiences of methadone in patients with cancer-related pain at a low-resource hospital in Hyderaba
