Declarations
:
: Data in the present study are based on anonymized information provided by Region Skåne. They provided anonymized information for research purposes once the study had been approved by the Ethics Committee at Lund University (application no. 2023-03587-01). All analyses were performed in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations. Due to the requirement for anonymized data, each individual could not be asked for consent to participate; active refusal of participation was applied instead. This was done by publishing information about the planned study in the Swedish local newspaper “Sydsvenskan”. The advertisement outlined the study and contained information on how to contact the research manager (first author) to opt out of participation.
