Exploring trust dynamics in health information systems: the impact of patients' health conditions on information source preferences.

Introduction: Health information systems (HISs) should provide accessible and high-quality information to patients. However, the challenge lies in understanding patients' trust preferences for health information. This study explores how different information sources (e.

Contextual factors associated with successful alcohol screening and brief intervention implementation and sustainment in adult primary care.

The Use of Expanded Carrier Screening in Reproductive Medicine: Scientific Impact Paper No. 74.

Expanded carrier screening (ECS) is a genetic screening test carried out by analysing a blood sample. This screen can be used to detect whether the individual unknowingly carries gene variants associated with common genetic conditions, such as cystic fibrosis, that may be passed on to their children. It is typically performed in reproductive medicine for those who are considering having a family either naturally or via fertility treatment.

The significance of mitochondrial haplogroups in preeclampsia risk.

Objective: To determine whether mitochondrial haplogroups function as disease-modifiers or as susceptibility factors in preeclampsia using a traditional haplogroup association model.

Methods: This retrospective study haplotyped 235 control and 78 preeclamptic pregnancies from Denmark using either real-time PCR or Sanger sequencing depending on the rarity of the haplogroup.

Results: No significant association between haplogroups and the risk of preeclampsia was found, nor was any role for haplogroups in disease severity uncovered.
