AbstractTo investigate if changes in body mass index (BMI) result in changes of the mandibular trabecular bone structure. Females (18–35 years at baseline, mean BMI 42,3) were followed from before (n = 117) until two years (n = 66) after obesity treatment (medical or surgical). The mandibular bone trabeculation was classified as sparse, dense, or mixed on intraoral radiographs (Lindh’s index). A digitized method (Jaw-X) assessed the size and intensities of intertrabecular spaces.

It is essential to comprehend how parents of infants born before 24 weeks gestation navigate the healthcare system. Parents reported exemplary neonatal care, inconsistent support and participation, extensive difficulties in relation to the child's health, and in transition between care levels. We recommend national monitoring, family-centred care, education and support to enable healthcare professionals and policymakers to strengthen adaptability in parents of extremely preterm infants.

This exploratory qualitative study with foreign-born participants found several themes that affected a delay or refusal to take the COVID-19 vaccine. Sociocultural differences meant that official institutions failed to understand that immigrants were hindered from accessing COVID-19 information due to language barriers and not recognising Sweden’s health agencies, and that adapted strategies directed to foreign-born audiences could have made a considerable difference.

The incidence and clinical relevance of asymptomatic cerebrospinal fluid escape (CSF-E) during antiretroviral therapy (ART) is uncertain. We examined the impact and incidence of asymptomatic CSF-E in a Swedish HIV cohort. Neuroasymptomatic people living with HIV (PLWH) who have been on ART for at least six months with suppressed plasma viral load were followed longitudinally.
