Young adults represent a minority in research; they are often considered too young or too old for participation. There is sparse information, especially in bereavement research, regarding how this age group perceives research participation and what they consider beneficial or harmful. To explore how parentally bereaved and nonbereaved young adults perceive research participation. Qualitative analysis of free-text comments collected in a Swedish nation-wide survey. Parentally cancer-bereaved and nonbereaved young adults between 18 and 25 years old living in Sweden. Five categories were identified from the free-text comments, three among the cancer-bereaved: (1) , (2) , and (3) , and two among the nonbereaved: (1) , and (2) . It is important to invite young adults to participate in bereavement research. The results suggest that potential harm is minimal and that participating in bereavement research can have a beneficial effect on young adults.

Therefore, our study proposed to develop a systematic attribution framework to comprehensively evaluate the health impacts of population aging.

Arthritis Res Ther
January 2025
Division of Rheumatology and Immunology, Department of Internal Medicine, Medical University of Graz, Auenbruggerplatz 15, Graz, 8036, Austria.
Background: Axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) leads to structural bone lesions in every part of the vertebral column. These lesions are only partially visualized on conventional radiographs, omitting posterior parts of the vertebral column and the thoracic spine, that may nevertheless contribute to impaired spinal mobility and function in patients with axial SpA.
Methods: In this prospective and blinded investigation, we assessed the distribution of structural spinal lesions using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the whole spine in 55 patients with axial SpA classified according to the Assessment in Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria.
