Hälsan hos äldre vårdgivare som ger omsorg till sina närstående är direkt kopplad till hur hög arbetsinsats de måste lägga ner.
Older adults in Sweden are increasingly caring for loved ones—potentially at the cost of their own health. Our new study in the Scandinavian Journal of Public Health is out now! Brief release and link to the study: https://t.co/VdCZlSpCPa

Sedan 1987 har forskare följt tusentals äldre på Kungsholmen. Resultaten visar att dagens 80-åringar är friskare – men hälsan påverkas av var i stadsdelen vi bor.

Excited to end 2024 with a publication in @AGSJournal! Beyond disease counts, we also explored the composition of multimorbidity. Of the five patterns identified in this cohort of Swedish older adults, the Cardiometabolic pattern had the highest risk for kidney function decline.
Multimorbidity is significantly linked to accelerated kidney function decline in older adults, with a dose–response relationship observed with the number of chronic conditions. #geriatrics
