The Relationship

Aims: The overall aim was to explore the relationship between recurrent pain and perceived problems with academic achievement among boys and girls in middle and late elementary school. Methods: This 3-year follow-up study was based on data from the Study of Health in School-aged Children from Umeå (Sweden) and included children attending grade 6 in years 2003 and 2006, and a follow-up 3 years later in grade 9 ( n = 1524, participation rate 90%). Results: Recurrent pain (head, stomach or back) at least doubled the odds of concurrent- and subsequent perceived problems with academic achievement. This applied for pain on a monthly and weekly basis, from single and multiple sites, and from each of the three studied pain sites. The odds increased with increasing pain frequency and number of pain sites. Problems with sleep, concentration or school absenteeism did not explain the association. Conclusions: Recurrent pain seems to be a potential predictor of perceived problems with academic achievement for school-aged children. This emphasises the importance of early identification and prevention of recurrent pain problems.

Oncologic Patients

PURPOSE To investigate the prospective pattern of use of alternative medicine, here called nonproven therapy (NPT), among oncologic patients during a 5-year period, and the relationship between this use and survival, a questionnaire-based follow-up study was performed at the Department of Oncology, University of Tromsø, from 1990 to 1996. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two-hundred fifty-two patients answered the first questionnaire during the period July 1990 to July 1991. Eligible patients were mailed follow-up questionnaires after 4, 12, 24 and 60 months. A telephone interview performed after the last follow-up questionnaire showed little disagreement with the prospective collected information as regards the number of patients reported as users of NPT (kappa, 0.92). RESULTS The number of patients who reported ever using NPT in each cross-sectional part of the study varied between 17.4% and 27.3%. However, the estimated cumulative risk of being a user of NPT during the follow-up period was 45%. Seventy-four percent of NPT users in this north Norwegian study population used faith healing or healing by hand (spiritual NPT) alone or in combination with other forms of NPT. The proportion of patients who used spiritual versus nonspiritual forms of NPT was consistent throughout the follow-up period. Women were more often users than men (50% v 31%, P = .002). Patients older than 75 years of age seldomly used NPT. The 5-year observed survival rate was not influenced by the use of NPT. Adjusted for sex, age, and diagnosis, patients with a high educational level had a borderline higher 5-year survival rate than patients with less education (P = .06). CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that cross-sectionally designed studies will underestimate the number of ever-users of NPT in a cancer patient population. The use of NPT does not influence observed survival among cancer patients seen in north Norway.
