The rise and fall of women's advantage: a comparison of national trends in life expectancy at age 65 years.

European journal of ageing

Thorslund M, Wastesson JW, Agahi N, Lagergren M, Parker MG.
PMID: 24319404
Eur J Ageing. 2013;10(4):271-277. doi: 10.1007/s10433-013-0274-8.

The female advantage in life expectancy (LE) is found worldwide, despite differences in living conditions, the status of women and other factors. However, this advantage has decreased in recent years in low-mortality countries. Few researchers have looked at the...

Clin Epidemiol. 2014 Dec 23;7:29-35. doi: 10.2147/CLEP.S70853. eCollection 2015.

INTRODUCTION: Network meta-analysis (NMA) is an extension of conventional pairwise meta-analysis that allows for simultaneous comparison of multiple interventions. Well-established drug class efficacies have become commonplace in many disease areas. Thus, for reasons of ethics and equipoise, it is...

Res Synth Methods. 2011 Sep;2(3):188-203. doi: 10.1002/jrsm.46. Epub 2011 Dec 14.

BACKGROUND: - Meta-analyses of health-related quality of life (HRQL) outcomes present difficulties in interpretation when studies use different instruments to measure the same construct. Presentation of results in standard deviation units (standardized mean difference) is widely used but is...

Predictors of mortality for the oldest old. A 4-year follow-up of community-based elderly in Sweden.

Archives of gerontology and geriatrics

Parker MG, Thorslund M, Nordström ML.
PMID: 15374387
Arch Gerontol Geriatr. 1992 May-Jun;14(3):227-37. doi: 10.1016/0167-4943(92)90023-w.

The aim of this study is to investigate predictors for mortality in two age groups, 75-84 years old and 85 years and older. Interviews were carried out on 161 community-based persons aged 75-84 and 260 persons aged 85 and...

Effective mixing of laminar flows at a density interface by an integrated ultrasonic transducer.

Lab on a chip

Johansson L, Johansson S, Nikolajeff F, Thorslund S.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of using network meta-analysis (NMA) versus pair wise meta-analyses (PMA) for evidence synthesis on key outputs of cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA).METHODS: We conducted Bayesian NMA of randomized clinical trials providing head-to-head and placebo comparisons of...

Care utilisation in the last years of life in Sweden: the effects of gender and marital status differ by type of care.

European journal of ageing
