We performed a calendar-matched, 12-month, before (November 27, 2017 to November 26, 2018) and after (November 27, 2018 to November 26, 2019) study, to assess the utility of an emergency department-ba...
The trauma team leader (TTL) is a "model" of a specifically dedicated team leader in the emergency department (ED), but its benefits are uncertain. The primary objective was to assess the impact of th...
Major trauma admissions (Injury Severity Score (ISS)≥12) in 3 Canadian Level-1 trauma centres were included from 2003 to 2017. The TTL program was implemented in centre 1 in 2005. An interrupted time ...
TTL implementation was not associated with changes in mortality or admission delays from the ED. Future studies should assess the potential impact of TTL programs on other patient-centred outcomes usi...
Suicide has become an increasingly concerning problem among soldiers in recent years. Previous research has hypothesized that media-related social contagion effects, termed "Werther effects," may cont...
An interrupted time-series analysis, relying on annual military suicide rates between 1873 and 1910, indicated a significant increase in the suicide rate the year of Rudolf's death, a pattern consiste...
Although we are very careful when interpreting causal effects with our historical data, we discuss the latter finding by questioning whether a change in military culture, that is, the establishment of...
to analyze trends in suicide rates in Brazil in the period before and after the start of the economic recession....
interrupted time series research using national suicide data recorded in the period between 2012 and 2017 with socioeconomic subgroups analyses. Quasi-Poisson regression model was employed to analyze ...
there was an abrupt increase in the risk of suicide after economic recession in the population with less education (12.5%; RR = 1.125; 95%CI: 1.027; 1.232) and in the South Region (17.7%; 1.044; 1.328...
the Brazilian economic recession caused different effects on suicide rates, considering social strata, which requires health strategies and policies that are sensitive to the most vulnerable populatio...
To assess the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on protests by health workers....
We conducted an interrupted time series analysis of data from 159 countries for 2 years before and after the World Health Organization classified COVID-19 as a pandemic in March 2020, thus between 201...
In total, there were 18 322 health worker protests in 133 countries between 2018 and 2022. The number of weekly health worker protests globally increased by 47% (30.1/63.5), an increase of 30.1 protes...
The pandemic increased the overall level of health worker protests globally as well as the number of countries experiencing such protests. These protests highlight discontent in the health workforce. ...
We are sometimes forced to use the Interrupted Time Series (ITS) design as an identification strategy for potential policy change, such as when we only have a single treated unit and cannot obtain com...
We hypothesized that children with Down syndrome who were born after the implementation of first-trimester combined screening for trisomy 13, 18, and 21 and a second-trimester ultrasound scan in Denma...
A nationwide register-based study of all live born singletons with Down syndrome in Denmark from 1995 to 2018. In interrupted time series analyses, we studied the temporal developments in birth biomet...
We included 602 singletons with Down syndrome born before and 308 after implementation of the screening program. Z-scores of birthweight and head circumference increased over time before screening, bu...
After implementation of a national prenatal screening program, we did not observe a milder Down syndrome phenotype apart from an apparent reduction in the proportion of children with non-severe congen...
In Australia, the available published literature demonstrated a spike in dispensed prescription medicines after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic that subsequently returned to expected levels. Smokin...
Australia's universal health-care system provides access to government-subsidised medicines via the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme and records of dispensed medicines are publicly available on a nation...
After an initial spike in medicines at the onset of the pandemic, the monthly rate of prescriptions dispensed for varenicline was predominantly within predicted ranges, while that of NRT patches was p...
There has been a differential change in the number of subsidised smoking cessation medicines supplied in Australia since the COVID-19 pandemic, with varenicline prescriptions largely within, and NRT p...
To evaluate the seasonality of acute bronchiolitis in Brazil during the 2020-2022 season and compare it with the previous seasons....
Data from the incidence of hospitalizations due to acute bronchiolitis in infants <1 year of age were obtained from the Department of Informatics of the Brazilian Public Health database for the period...
Compared to the pre-COVID-19 period, the incidence of hospitalizations related to acute bronchiolitis decreased by 97% during non-pharmacological interventions (March 2020 - August 2021) but increased...
This study underscores the significant influence of COVID-19 interventions on acute bronchiolitis hospitalizations in Brazil. The restoration of a seasonal pattern in 2022 highlights the interplay bet...
