Alcohol consumption and lower risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality: the impact of accounting for familial factors in twins
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-20)Background. A moderate to high alcohol consumption is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in comparison with low consumption. The mechanisms underlying this association are not clear and have been suggested to be caused by residual confounding. The main objective of this study was to separate the familial and individual risk for CVD mortality and all-cause mortality ... -

However, it is unknown to what extent low educational attainment can explain the increased mortality in individuals with schizophrenia.<p> <p>Aim: Here, ... -

The aim of the present study was to investigate total and cause- specific mortality in inpatients with affective disorder in a 33-year follow- up cohort, with a specific focus on sex differences. <p> Methods: Based on a hospital case register covering all ... -
Total and cause-specific standardized mortality ratios in patients with schizophrenia and/or substance use disorder
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-23)Individuals with schizophrenia or substance use disorder have a substantially increased mortality compared to the general population. Despite a high and probably increasing prevalence of comorbid substance use disorder in people with schizophrenia, the mortality in the comorbid group has been less studied and with contrasting results. We performed a nationwide open cohort study from 2009 to 2015, ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-07)<p><i>Objective - </i>To examine whether individuals with schizophrenia (SCZ) or bipolar disorder (BD) had equal likelihood of not being diagnosed with cardiovascular disease (CVD) prior to cardiovascular death, compared to individuals without SCZ or BD. <p><i>Methods - </i>Multivariate logistic regression analysis including nationwide data of 72 451 cardiovascular deaths in the years 2011–2016. ...
