Implementation of an integrated community approach in deprived neighbourhoods: a theory-based process evaluation using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR)
CONCLUSIONS: Engaging citizens and professionals at an early stage is an important facilitator for implementation. The use of a shared vision on health also worked as a facilitator since it created a shared language among professionals, which is important in Population Health Management initiatives where multiple professionals are expected to collaborate.TRIAL REGISTRATION: NTR 6543; registration date, 25 July 2017.PMID:37726916 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231199804 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Public Health)

Is duration of residence a proxy for acculturation? The case of health risk behaviors among international immigrants
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that duration of residence should not be used as a proxy for acculturation when studying health risk behaviors among immigrants. Researchers should consider additional time-dependent factors to explain behavioral changes by duration of residence.PMID:37723980 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231199534 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Public Health)

Does who you live with matter for your health? The influence of partners' socioeconomic characteristics on self-rated health in Norway
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that health is affected by the resources (or lack thereof) in one's immediate networks. To reduce social inequalities in health, health personnel might customise interactions to account for household resources. Such knowledge could also be used in health-promoting activities to enhance participation and health competency.PMID:37705349 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231197453 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Public Health)

Health care use after severe respiratory tract infections in children aged 0 to 5 years
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings imply a slightly increased health care use among infants after a hospital visit for COVID-19 than among infants with other RTIs, the potential etiological mechanisms of which deserve future clinical research. Severe COVID-19 in young children will not represent any markedly increased burden on the health services.PMID:37698056 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231197250 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Public Health)

Interpreter services for immigrants in European healthcare systems: a systematic review of access barriers and facilitators
CONCLUSION: Immigrant patients and healthcare professionals experience barriers in using interpreter services due to restrictive policies regarding user fees and limitations to entitlement to interpreters, a limited number of qualified interpreters and lack of knowledge. Medical encounters with unaddressed language barriers can put patients at risk and reduce quality of care for immigrants, which calls for strengthening formal and informal access to interpreters.PMID:37698073 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231179279 (Source: Scandinavian Journal of Public Health)
