Development of geographic inequality in dental caries and its association with socioeconomic factors over an 18-year period in Denmark.
BMC Oral Health
September 2023
National Institute of Public Health, University of Southern Denmark, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Background: Few studies have examined the development of geographic and socioeconomic inequalities in caries over time or have simultaneously assessed individual-level socioeconomic position (SEP) and neighborhood-level factors as a multi-layered phenomenon influencing caries inequalities. This study examined (i) the trends in geographic inequalities in caries among adolescents in Denmark and (ii) how the association between SEP and caries has progressed over time, when accounting for individual and neighborhood-level confounding factors.
Methods: This nationwide repeated cross-sectional study included 15-year-olds in Denmark from 1995, 2003, and 2013 (n = 149,808).
Management of Guillain-Barré syndrome in Bangladesh: Clinical practice, limitations and recommendations for low- and middle-income countries.
J Peripher Nerv Syst
December 2023
National Institute of Neurosciences and Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Background And Aims: Considerable variation in clinical practice for management of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) has been observed worldwide. Diagnosis and treatment are challenging in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) due to lack of facilities and treatment availability. We aimed to evaluate current clinical practice and limitations and to provide recommendation for GBS management in low-resource settings.

Article Synopsis
- Patients in the emergency room want to be part of the decision-making process about their care, but they often aren't.
- Healthcare professionals face challenges that make it hard to include patients, like busy routines and different patient needs.
- To help patients be more involved, healthcare workers need better ways to talk with them about their care choices when they are ready to leave the hospital.
Attributable risk factors for asymptomatic malaria and anaemia and their association with cognitive and psychomotor functions in schoolchildren of north-eastern Tanzania.
PLoS One
May 2022
Global Health Institute, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium.
In Africa, children aged 5 to 15 years (school age) comprises more than 50% (>339 million) of the under 19 years population, and are highly burdened by malaria and anaemia that impair cognitive development. For the prospects of improving health in African citizens, understanding malaria and its relation to anaemia in school-aged children, it is crucial to inform targeted interventions for malaria control and accelerate elimination efforts as part of improved school health policy. We conducted a study to determine the risk factors for asymptomatic malaria and their association to anaemia.

Department of Medicine 1, Friedrich-Alexander-Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg, Erlangen, Bayern, Germany
Objective: Increased apoptotic shedding has been linked to intestinal barrier dysfunction and development of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In contrast, physiological cell shedding allows the renewal of the epithelial monolayer without compromising the barrier function. Here, we investigated the role of live cell extrusion in epithelial barrier alterations in IBD.
