Serum DHEA and Its Sulfate Are Associated With Incident Fall Risk in Older Men : The MrOS Sweden Study

The adrenal-derived hormones dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEAS) are the most abundant circulating hormones and their levels decline substantially with age. Many of the actions of DHEAS are considered to be mediated through metabolism into androgens and estrogens in peripheral target tissues. The predictive value of serum DHEA and DHEAS for the likelihood of falling is unknown. T

Bioabsorbable polymer everolimus-eluting stents in patients with acute myocardial infarction : A report from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry

Aims: The clinical performance of the SYNERGY drug-eluting stent (DES) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) has not been investigated in detail. We sought to report on the outcomes after SYNERGY DES (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA) implantation in patients with MI undergoing percutaneous revascularisation (PCI).

Effects of medication reviews on use of potentially inappropriate medications in elderly patients; a cross-sectional study in Swedish primary care

Medication reviews are one method to improve drug therapy by identifying, preventing and solving DRPs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of medication reviews on total drug use and po

What matters when implementing Flexible Assertive Community Treatment in a Swedish healthcare context : A two-year implementation study

Despite the lack of scientific evidence for the effectiveness of Flexible Assertive Community Treatment (Flexible ACT), the model disseminates rapidly in the mental health services in a number of countries. This is in contrast to many evidence-based practices that often face comprehensive implementation barriers. Knowledge is needed on the dissemination of Flexible ACT to understand the relative s
