Measuring a family sense of coherence: a rasch-based study extending dyadic data analyses.

Background: Family sense of coherence (FSOC) seems to reduce distress in the family and promote the well-being of the family. Therefore, getting accurate measurements for families with long-term illnesses is of particular interest. This study explores dyadic data analysis from the dyadic- and single-informant perspectives, and the measurement properties of the FSOC-S12 according to the Rasch model.

Outdoor mobility and driving among persons living with spinal cord injury in Sweden: a cross-sectional study.

Persons living with spinal cord injury (SCI) often lacks access to outdoor mobility, which can significantly impact their ability to participate in activities outside the home, to take part in their community, and to have meaningful occupations and relationships with loved ones. To better understand the importance of outdoor mobility for persons with SCI, the aim of this cross-sectional study was to explore transport modes, car adaptations, and their perceived function and safety. A web-survey, addressing outdoor mobility and driving, was distributed among people with different physical impairments.

Plasma p-tau181 and GFAP reflect 7T MR-derived changes in Alzheimer's disease: A longitudinal study of structural and functional MRI and MRS.

Background: Associations between longitudinal changes of plasma biomarkers and cerebral magnetic resonance (MR)-derived measurements in Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain unclear.

Methods: In a study population (n = 127) of healthy older adults and patients within the AD continuum, we examined associations between longitudinal plasma amyloid beta 42/40 ratio, tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (p-tau181), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), neurofilament light chain (NfL), and 7T structural and functional MR imaging and spectroscopy using linear mixed models.

Results: Increases in both p-tau181 and GFAP showed the strongest associations to 7T MR-derived measurements, particularly with decreasing parietal cortical thickness, decreasing connectivity of the salience network, and increasing neuroinflammation as determined by MR spectroscopy (MRS) myo-inositol.

Fertility and age at childbirth in polycystic ovary syndrome: results from a longitudinal population-based cohort study.

Background: There are few studies in unselected populations describing reproductive outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) at the end of their reproductive years.

Objective: To compare parity and maternal age at deliveries and explore factors associated with advanced maternal age in a large, unselected population-based cohort, followed prospectively for 25 years.

Study Design: Women randomly selected from the general population and included in the prospective Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health were assessed approximately every third year from 1996 (age 18-23 years) to 2021 (age 43-48 years).
