“…Both large-scale and more in depth epidemiological studies are needed, of which several have been described in detail in this journal [62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69]. Major efforts should be made to analyze the effects of maternal macronutrient and micronutrient intake on epigenetic modifications of specific genes related to cardiovascular development and on detailed fetal adaptive responses in early and late pregnancy.…”

Effects of increased alcohol availability during adolescence on the risk of all‐cause and cause‐specific disability pension: a natural experiment

et al. 2017

AimTo test if being exposed to increased alcohol availability during adolescence is associated with an increased risk of receiving disability pension due to all‐cause, alcohol use disorders and mental disorders.DesignRegister‐based population‐based study using a natural experiment setting, the alcohol policy change in Sweden (1967–68), with increased access to strong beer in a narrow time window and geographical area. The individuals exposed to the policy change were compared with non‐exposed individuals living in the rest of Sweden, excluding a border area.SettingSweden.ParticipantsA total of 518 810 individuals (70 761 in the intervention group; 448 049 in the control group) born 1948–1953, aged 14–20 years during the policy change.MeasurementsDate and diagnosis of the outcome variable of disability pension due to all‐cause, alcohol use disorders and mental disorders were obtained from the Swedish National Social Insurance Agency database from 1971 to 2013. Individual and family level socio‐demographic and health‐related covariates, as well as a regional level covariate, were included.FindingsCompared with the control group, adolescents exposed to the alcohol policy change were at an increased risk of receiving disability pension due to all‐causes [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.09, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.07–1.11], alcohol use disorders (HR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.05–1.30) and mental disorders (HR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.15–1.23).ConclusionIn Sweden, a natural experiment with a 43‐year follow‐up suggests that exposure to increased alcohol availability during adolescence is associated with an increased risk of receiving a disability pension due to all‐cause, alcohol use disorder and mental disorder diagnoses.

“…Studies on the former have found that both socio-demographic characteristics and socioeconomic position predict disability retirement: High age is a strong predictor (Gjesdal et al, 2004;Leinonen et al, 2011;Bruusgaard et al, 2010;Støver et al, 2012), as well as being a woman (Samuelsson et al, 2012;Krokstad and Westin, 2004;Bruusgaard et al, 2010;Støver et al, 2012), or unmarried (Leinonen et al, 2011;Samuelsson et al, 2012). Lower socioeconomic position has consistently been found to be strongly negatively associated with disability retirement, regardless of what measure of socioeconomic position that has been used: occupational class (Krokstad and Westin, 2004;Leinonen et al, 2011;Samuelsson et al, 2012), education (Gravseth et al, 2007;Samuelsson et al, 2012;Leinonen et al, 2011;Bruusgaard et al, 2010;Støver et al, 2012), income (Gjesdal et al, 2004;Leinonen et al, 2011), and unemployment (Leinonen et al, 2011;Støver et al, 2012). Studies on the socioeconomic determinants of impairment or disability per se are scarcer, but their findings suggest, unsurprisingly, that the same factors found to predict disability retirement also predict (self-reported) impairment and disability (Pascual and Cantarero, 2007;Reinhardt et al, 2013;Melo and Valdes, 2011).…”

To provide disabled people with the same opportunities to participate in working life as everyone else, certain measures, such as wage subsidies, compensating for a reduced work capacity, might be necessary. To ascertain that these measures are limited to the most needy a system that identifies the target group is required. The Swedish Public Employment Service's (PES') classification of occupational disability constitutes such a system. In this study we document how jobseekers' demographic characteristics, socioeconomic position, and health-related conditions are associated with being classified as occupationally disabled by the PES, and how this classification might be distorted by unintended incentive mechanisms. Our empirical analyses show that both previous health conditions and previous socioeconomic disadvantages were associated with a higher likelihood of being classified as occupationally disabled. To what extent these jobseekers actually had impairments that entailed reduced work capacity cannot be concluded from the available data, but our results indicate that also the goals set by the government may have influenced how the PES classified jobseekers.

Abstract: Early DP is associated with several biological and social background factors from childhood. It also shows a strong dependency on educational achievement.
