Calculation of lifetime relative risks from summary cohort data and application to calculation of attributable fractions.

In cohort studies, relative risks are estimated by comparing eventual disease risk in individuals exposed to the risk factor at baseline with similar unexposed individuals. However, such relative risk estimates intrinsically depend on how many of the unexposed individuals develop exposure after baseline and on the ages at which the exposed individuals developed exposure prior to baseline. These factors pertain to the distribution of risk factor incidence in the population, rather than to the causal effect the risk factor has on disease.

National assessment on the frequency of pain medication prescribed for intrauterine device insertion procedures within the Veterans Affairs Health Care System.

Background: The intrauterine device (IUD) is a highly effective form of long-acting reversible contraception, widely recognized for its convenience and efficacy. Despite its benefits, many patients report moderate to severe pain during and after their IUD insertion procedure. Furthermore, reports suggest significant variability in pain control medications, including no adequate pain medication.

Adopting a Holistic Approach to Alcohol Brief Interventions for Women in a Prison Setting in the UK: A Qualitative Exploration.

Currently, women make up only 5% of the prison population, with 3604 women in prison in the UK compared to 74,981 men. Risky drinking is highly prevalent in both the male and female prison population, however, significantly more females drink in a risky way prior to prison (24% compared to 18% of men). In addition to risky drinking, those entering the criminal justice system (CJS), particularly women, are more likely to suffer from inequalities in society.
