In a 28-year follow-up population-based study, Finnish researchers studied middle-aged white-collar and blue-collar employees to see if a person's work ability in midlife might predict their risk of death or disability. In 1981, a total of 5971 employees aged 44-58 reported on their perceived work ability as part ...

In Canada, at least 70% of residents lack access to palliative care and for those who do have access, it is inequitable. "The equalization of palliative care ...

An international collaboration of scientists reported the results today as part of a series of three decoded ...
