Article Abstract
Objective: To explore the link between COVID-19 incidence, socio-economic covariates, and NHL incidence.
Design: Ecological study design.
Setting: Sardinia, Italy.
Participants: We used official reports on the total cases of COVID-19 in 2020, published data on NHL incidence, and socio-economic indicators by administrative unit, covering the whole regional population.
Main Outcomes And Measures: We used multivariable regression analysis to explore the association between the natural logarithm (ln) of the 2020 cumulative incidence of COVID-19 and the ln-transformed NHL incidence in 1974-2003, weighing by population size and adjusting by socioeconomic deprivation and other covariates.
Results: The cumulative incidence of COVID-19 increased in relation to past incidence of NHL (p < 0.001), socioeconomic deprivation (p = 0.006), and proportion of elderly residents (p < 0.001) and decreased with urban residency (p = 0.001). Several sensitivity analyses confirmed the finding of an association between COVID-19 and NHL.
Conclusion: This ecological study found an ecological association between NHL and COVID-19. If further investigation would confirm our findings, shared susceptibility factors should be investigated among the plausible underlying mechanisms.

This study examined trends in the proportion of adults with self-reported hypertension and in antihypertensive medication use among community-dwelling Australian adults. We analysed data from a longitudinal panel study, covering four waves: 2009 (n = 8023), 2013 (n = 11,475), 2017 (n = 12,843), and 2021 (n = 14,571) for adults aged 18-74 years. Hypertension and antihypertensive medication use were self-reported.

Research Question: What is the global, regional and national burden of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), particularly in adolescents, based on data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study?
Design: Prevalence, incidence and years lived with disability (YLD) for PCOS were extracted from the GBD 2021 database, standardized via Bayesian meta-regression, and stratified by age, region and Socio-Demographic Index (SDI). Temporal trends (1990-2021) were presented, and future projections (to 2045) were modelled using autoregressive integrated moving average models.
Results: Between 1990 and 2021, the global prevalence of PCOS increased from 36.
