Published 3 August 2020 Combining National Quality Registries (NQRs) with existing National Health Registries (NHRs) might make it possible to get a wider picture of older adults health situation. The aim was to examine the feasibility of aggregating data across different NQRs and existing NHRs to explore the possibility to investigate trajectories and patterns of disease and care, specifically fo

Published 4 August 2020 Generalized linear models (GLMs) are often used with binary outcomes to estimate odds ratios. Though not as widely appreciated, GLMs can also be used to quantify risk differences, risk ratios, and their appropriate standard errors (1). Here, we illustrate how GLMs can be used to quantify these latter effect measures, and we demonstrate how to obtain valid standard errors. R

Published 5 August 2020 There has been much debate about the relative emphasis of the field of epidemiology on causal inference. We believe this debate does short shrift to the breadth of the field. Epidemiologists answer myriad questions that are not causal and hypothesize about and investigate causal relationships without estimating causal effects. Descriptive studies face significant and often

Published 10 August 2020 Breastfeeding in public continues to be contentious with qualitative evidence confirming that women face many challenges. It is therefore important to gain understanding of not only the challenges but also what women perceive is helpful to breastfeed in public. Read more at https://doi.org/10.1186/s13006-020-00281-0.

Published 17 August 2020 In this paper we study approaches for dealing with treatment when developing a clinical prediction model. Analogous to the estimand framework recently proposed by the European Medicines Agency for clinical trials, we propose a ‘predictimand’ framework of different questions that may be of interest when predicting risk in relation to treatment started after baseline.
