Validation of an web-based dietary assessment tool (RiksmatenFlex) against doubly labelled water and 24 h dietary recalls in pregnant women.

Introduction: Digital technologies have enabled new possibilities to assess dietary intake and have shown promise in terms of decreased participant burden, improved accuracy and lower costs. However, their potential and validity in pregnant populations are scarcely explored.

Objectives: This study aimed to (a) validate energy intakes obtained from a web-based dietary recall method developed for national surveys (RiksmatenFlex) against total energy expenditure (TEE) by means of the doubly labelled water (DLW) method, and (b) to compare intakes of macronutrients, key unhealthy and healthy foods as well as adherence to food-based dietary guidelines between RiksmatenFlex and repeated 24 h telephone dietary recalls in healthy Swedish pregnant women.

Sleep patterns are associated with cardiometabolic risk factors in nine-year-old Swedish children.

Aim: Sleep duration and bedtime may play a role in children's cardiometabolic health, but research is lacking. This study examined associations between sleep patterns and cardiometabolic risk factors in Swedish nine-year-olds.

Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from three studies, where identical outcome measures were conducted in 411 nine-year-olds, 51% boys, between 2016 and 2020.

Clinical validation of the self-reported 6-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D6-SR) among inpatients.

Background: Brief and valid patient-rated symptom scales represent a valuable addition to clinician-rated scales for assessing depression. Studies on the psychometric properties of the self-rated 6-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D6-SR) have shown promising results for outpatients with depression. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the HAM-D6-SR among inpatients using the clinician-rated 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD17) as the gold standard.

After two weeks he developed acute retrograde autobiographical amnesia. No organic cause was identified, and the patient was therefore diagnosed with dissociative amnesia.

Managing Fatigue: Experiences From a 6-week Course for Adults With Cerebral Palsy.

Objective: To explore experiences of a 6-week Fatigue Management course (FMC) in adults with cerebral palsy (CP).

International Study of Movement Behaviors in the Early Years (SUNRISE): Results from SUNRISE Sweden's Pilot and COVID-19 Study.

The International Study of Movement Behaviors in the Early Years (SUNRISE) was initiated in response to the 2019 WHO guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep in children aged 0-5 years. This Swedish pilot study aimed to: (i) assess the proportion of preschoolers meeting the guidelines, (ii) evaluate the feasibility of the methods for the SUNRISE study, and (iii) assess how movement behaviors have been affected in preschoolers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Physical activity and sleep (waist-worn ActiGraph); screen time and movement behaviors (parental questionnaire); motor skills (Ages and Stages Questionnaire); and executive functions (3 iPad games) were assessed in 100 Swedish preschoolers ( = 58 boys).
