Family history of fracture and fracture risk: a meta-analysis to update the FRAX® risk assessment tool.

Unlabelled: In the largest meta-analysis of international cohorts to date, a family history of fracture is confirmed as a significant BMD-independent predictor of future fracture risk. Parental and sibling histories of fracture carry the same significance for future fracture, including the impact of family hip fracture on future hip fracture risk.

Purpose: We have undertaken a meta-analysis of international prospective cohorts to quantify the relationship between a family history of fracture and future fracture incidence.

Body mass index and subsequent fracture risk: A meta-analysis to update FRAX®.

The aim of this international meta-analysis was to quantify the predictive value of body mass index (BMI) for incident fracture and relationship of this risk with age, sex, follow-up time and bone mineral density (BMD). 1 667 922 men and women from 32 countries (63 cohorts), followed for a total of 16.0 million person-years were studied.

Association between intimate partner violence and birth outcomes among pregnant women in the STOP-VIO-PREG cohort: A cohort study utilizing Patient-Reported Outcome and Danish registers data.

Introduction: Adverse birth outcomes, such as preterm birth, low birthweight, and small for gestational age, are critical indicators of neonatal health. While the impact of biomedical risk factors is well established, the role of psychosocial stressors, including intimate partner violence, remains less understood. This study investigates the association between intimate partner violence among pregnant women and adverse birth outcomes in a Danish context.

Painful, but necessary: a qualitative process evaluation on patient experiences with modified prolonged exposure as early intervention after rape (the EIR study).

Early trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy may help reduce post-traumatic stress symptoms in individuals recently exposed to sexual assault. In Norway, specialized Sexual Assault Centres (SACs) provide psychosocial support to survivors of sexual assault, yet the effectiveness of these services remains uncertain. The Early Intervention after Rape (EIR) study is a multisite randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of modified prolonged exposure therapy (mPE) compared to treatment as usual (TAU) in alleviating post-traumatic stress symptoms shortly after rape.

Domestic violence and food insecurity among pregnant women in Nepal: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Domestic violence and food insecurity are significant global health challenges, particularly during pregnancy, when both can adversely affect maternal and child health. Food insecurity may occur independently or as a consequence of domestic violence, yet their relationship remains underexplored. This study aims to investigate the association between exposure to domestic violence perpetrated by intimate partners or by family members and food insecurity during pregnancy.
