Experiences and actions related to living with type 1 diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic in Norway: a qualitative study conducted during July to December 2020
CONCLUSIONS: Patients experienced an increased psychosocial burden of T1DM and difficulties from a disrupted daily life affecting T1DM self-management routines. Uncertainty-reducing behaviours and actions to adapt to the situation provided a general sense of coping despite these difficulties. Tailored information and follow-up by telephone or video call was emphasised to reduce uncertainly distress and support adequate diabetes T1DM self-management.PMID:35393314 | DOI:10.1136/bmjopen-2021-056027

Clinical information predicting severe obstructive sleep apnea: A cross-sectional study of patients waiting for sleep diagnostics
CONCLUSIONS: Based on a prediction score derived from simple, easily available data, patients unlikely to suffer from severe OSA can be identified, and thus facilitate more urgent consideration of patients more likely to have severe OSA.PMID:35490509 | DOI:10.1016/j.rmed.2022.106860

Cohort profile: Outcomes & Multi-morbidity In Type 2 diabetes (OMIT) - a national registry-based observational cohort with focus on care and treatment of key high-risk groups in Norway
Purpose The ‘Outcomes & Multi-morbidity in Type 2 Diabetes’ (OMIT) is an observational registry-based cohort of Norwegian patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) established to study high-risk groups often omitted from randomised clinical trials. Participants The OMIT cohort includes 57 572 patients with T2D identified via linkage of Norwegian Diabetes Register for Adults and the Rogaland-Oslo-Salten-Akershus-Hordaland study, both offering data on clinical patient characteristics and drug prescriptions. Subsequently these data are further linked to the Norwegian Prescription Database for dispensed medications,...

The Evolving Economics of Implementation
Decision makers in healthcare systems strive to implement evidence-based, high-quality care. A lack of economic data is often cited as a barrier to implementation, especially when decision makers are asked to allocate finite resources and face competing demands.1–3 Studies that evaluate the cost of implementation strategies remain rare, and often these studies only estimate the implementation costs without connecting those investments to patient outcomes. In this issue of BMJ Quality & Safety, in a cost-effectiveness evaluation of a quality improvement project to improve thrombolysis door-to-needle times in a lar...

Cold Weather Can Be Dangerous for the Human Body. This Winter Worries Experts
A particularly nasty trifecta of influenza, COVID-19, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is already portending a rough winter. But there’s another factor contributing to a potentially tough season for health: a colder-than-average season, which is forecast in the northern U.S. and the U.K. Even an ordinary cold season can pose a threat to human health and safety. One 2015 study published in the Lancet analyzed over 74 million deaths around the world found that more than 7% of deaths were attributed to exposure to cold temperatures. “There is conclusive evidence that there is increased risk for many health ou...

Response to Letter to the Editor
We thank the authors for their interest in our article and the thoughtful comments. As they correctly point out, the association between the first vaccination with ChAdOx1 nCov -19 vaccine and the described symptoms in our article does not prove any causality. However, cutaneous hemorrhages and headaches were frequently reported side effects after vaccination with ChAdOx1 nCov-19 in the Norwegian corona study cohort in young and previously healthy subjects. In lack of previous experience, there was a fear that these symptoms may have represented a mild form of VITT.

Screen-Detected Atrial Fibrillation and “Micro-Atrial Fibrillation” and Risk of Cardiovascular Events after Myocardial Infarction in Elderly Patients
Conclusions: Two-week intermittent ECG screening identified few cases of new-onset AF but a substantial number of patients with “micro-AF.” “Micro-AF” was associated with an increased risk of major cardiovascular events, albeit with an intermediate risk compared to those with new-onset AF.
