To explore access to services, this study analyses unmet need for services, barriers that impede access and whether individual characteristics are associated with service access. The study period coincided with the COVID-19-pandemic and health and social services reform in Finland.Method: The prevalence of subjective unmet need was used as an indicator of service access. Inconvenient opening hours, a difficult journey to the service unit and high user fees were barriers to receiving services. A nationally representative FinSote survey 2018 and 2020 was used in the analyses. Data were examined with multivariate logistic regression models using SPSS.Results: A high prevalence of unmet need for health care and especially for social welfare services was observed. The prevalence of unmet need increased from 2018 to 2020, but in health care only, and access to social welfare services deteriorated. In particular, women, younger people, those who need income support and those with poor health or quality of life forgo care.Conclusions: \u0000 A considerable share of the Finnish population do not receive essential services according to need and face barriers in accessing services. Individual characteristics are associated with perceived unmet need and access barriers despite the ethos of equal opportunities. COVID-19 measures are likely to have worsened the situation.

The interviews were based on the young people's reflections of the questions in the Swedish national public health survey. Data were analysed with reflexive thematic analysis.Results: The resources and strategies that the young people in this study described as important for promoting mental well-being are related to societal prerequisites needed to navigate life; to their immediate surroundings, including social interactions; and to the young people themselves. These resources and strategies are presented under the following three themes: prerequisites for navigating life, social interactions on one's own terms, and who I am and what I can do.Conclusions: Young people have a variety of resources and strategies of their own available for promoting mental well-being. However, they cannot promote mental health just on their own; access to social networks and the opportunity to share thoughts and feelings are central. Further, to promote mental health, young people need good social conditions, knowledge, and support from adults so that the existence they struggle to navigate feels comprehensible, manageable and meaningful.","PeriodicalId":49568,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"64-71"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11951348/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142824701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study aimed to assess time spent on different types of SBM, self-reported moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and physical activity in different domains and their interrelations.Methods: The study is based on data from 3737 participants aged 11, 13 and 15 years from Norway collected in 2021/2022 as part of the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children collaborative cross-national survey.Results: The findings revealed high amounts of total SBM time. There were age and gender differences in physical activity, especially with lower levels of active transport during leisure time among girls than among boys. A series of binary logistic regression analyses with adjustment for age, gender and socioeconomic status showed that high levels of total SBM time were negatively associated with involvement in club sports, active school transport, active travel to friends and leisure activities, and 60 min MVPA 5 days/week. Gaming and social media use were also negatively associated with most of the physical activity indicators. All SBM variables were negatively associated with involvement in club sports and 60 min MVPA 5 days/week.Conclusions: \u0000 The study demonstrates negative associations between SBM time among adolescents and physical activity in various domains. Actions to facilitate youth physical activity in the digital age seem crucial. Additional studies with nuanced data on these behaviours and longitudinal research design allowing for examining their interrelations over time are needed.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":49568,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"42-51"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11951388/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142824696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For individuals experiencing financial problems, risk factors for suicide can commonly include circumstances surrounding payment problems, including unemployment, divorce, low education and low income mediated by debt.Methods: In this study, we investigate the impact of payment problems on suicide in Norway using a spline-based parametric survival analysis, with suicide as the outcome variable. With access to high quality Norwegian register data and unique information on payment problems, defined as deductions in wages or benefits, we investigated suicide amongst the entire adult Norwegian population over an 11-year period (2008-2018).Results: We found that the prevalence of payment problems among the Norwegian population between 2009 and 2018 was associated with a higher risk of suicide for both males and females. Despite the greater proportion of suicide occurring amongst males both globally and in Norway, we found that women experiencing financial hardship had a relatively higher suicide risk when adjusted for demographic variables than their male counterparts.Conclusions: \u0000 These findings highlight the need for stronger protections for individuals struggling with financial difficulties and emphasise the importance of further research on the relationship between payment problems and suicide, with the aim of informing and enhancing national suicide prevention strategies.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":49568,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"14034948241312375"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined factors both within (recurrent pain in different parts of the body) and beyond (repeated bullying, depressive symptoms, screen time and organised activity frequency) medication indications by means of logistic regression. Covariates and background variables included sleep duration, frequency of sports activities, gender, age and socioeconomic status.Results: The results revealed a high prevalence of recent OTC analgesic use (23.7%).

Data on the population's smoking habits was retrieved from surveys and from taxation on the sale of cigarettes. The occurrence of larynx cancer was compared to smoking habits, sex and age. The time trends were compared between larynx and lung cancer.Results: Over the years, Swedish men and women have had different smoking habits, especially older persons during the 1970s. In 1963, the prevalence of current smokers in women 50-69 years was 11%, while it was 46% in men. Around 2020, less than 10% of men and women in all age groups were current smokers. However, men had higher incidence rates of larynx cancer than women, even when their smoking habits were similar. For example, men and women 60-64 years of age in 2017-2021 had similar smoking habits during their life but the relative risk of larynx cancer in men compared to women was 3.3 (95% CI 1.7-4.8). However, pipe smoking was much more common in men.Conclusions: \u0000 The study indicates that other causes than cigarette smoking have an impact on the occurrence of larynx cancer in Sweden. Pipe smoking and occupational exposure to carcinogenic materials such as asbestos may be underlying causes of the difference in cancer risk between Swedish men and women.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":49568,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"14034948251327872"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143677330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data on 10 mental health indices were gathered, along with socio-demographic factors of schoolchildren. General linear model and binary logistic regression were employed for assessing the associations of mental health indices with socio-demographic factors.Results: Overall, the prevalence of poorer mental health indices was 5.2% for not good health, 61% for feeling low, 59% for irritability, 56% for nervousness, 33% for sleep difficulties, 31% for loneliness, 16% for low mood, 36% for low self-efficacy, 15% for anxiety and 35% for negative COVID-19 impact on mental health. Girls, older schoolchildren and those whose fathers were unemployed exhibited a significantly higher prevalence of poorer mental health for most of the indices. Children from rural areas and those from less affluent families had a higher prevalence of poorer self-rated health.Conclusions: \u0000 Our study sheds light on the concerning prevalence of various mental health indices among Albanian children. The main findings underscore the need for targeted interventions to address these challenges, particularly among vulnerable groups such as girls, older children and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
