Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyse the impact of the construction of medical schools and associated university hospitals in Japan during the 1970s, which was primarily driven by ‘One Prefecture, One Medical School Policy’ (OPOMS). We find that the number of physicians increased significantly in prefectures where a medical school was built, and this effect persisted ...

Null Effects of the State Pension Age on Mortality in the Netherlands

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing the state pension (SP) age in the Netherlands from 65 years in 2012 to 67 in 2024 has been shown to cause individuals to work longer. This study addresses a concern regarding possible adverse health effects of an increased SP‐age, for example, because individuals trade health investments for working time. We empirically investigated

Immune Markers and Risk of Pancreatic Cancer in the European EPIC Cohort

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
The immune system has been implicated as a major driver in pancreatic cancer etiology. Previous cohort studies have found associations between pancreatic cancer and single immune system‐derived markers, but omics‐based evidence remains scarce. In this prospective case–control study, the authors investigated 92 proteins involved in immune reactions and ...

Incidence Trends of Colorectal Cancer by Social and Behavioral Factors—A Pooled Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents more than 10% of the global cancer burden. Unlike in some other cancers, no single risk factor accounts for most CRC cases. Despite the well‐studied overall incidence trend of CRC, little information is available on risk factor‐specific incidence trends of CRC.
