- Objective: To investigate associations between depression, anxiety, and antidepressants before in vitro fertilization (1VF) and IVF cycle outcomes, including pregnancy, live birth, and miscarriage. Patient(s): Nulliparous women undergoing their first 1VF cycle recorded in the Swedish Quality Register of Assisted Reproduction, January 2007 to December 2012 (n = 23,557). Main Outcome Measure(s): Associations between diagnoses of depression/anxiety, antidepressants, and IVF cycle outcome evaluated using logistic regression to produce adjusted odds ratios (AOR) and 950/o confidence intervals (CI). Result(s): In total, 4.40/o of women had been diagnosed with depression/anxiety and/or dispensed antidepressants before their IVF first cycle. The odds for pregnancy and live birth were decreased (n = 1,044; AOR = 0.86; 950/0 CI, 0.75-0.98; and AOR = 0.83; 950/o CI, 0.720.96, respectively). For women with a prescription for a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) only (n = 829), no statistically significant associations were found. Women with non-SSRI antidepressants (n = 52) were at reduced odds of pregnancy (AOR = 0.41; 950/0 CI, 0.21-0.80) and live birth (AOR = 0.27; 950/o CI, 0.11-0.68). Women with a depression/anxiety diagnosis with no antidepressant (n = 164) also had reduced odds of pregnancy (AOR = 0.58; 950/0 CI, 0.41-0.82) and live birth (AOR = 0.60; 95% CI, 0.41-0.89). Among the women who became pregnant (39.70/0, there were no statistically significant associations between exposure and miscarriage except for the women taking non-SSRI antidepressants (AOR = 3.56; 950/o CI, 1.06-11.9). Conclusion(s): A diagnosis of depression/anxiety and/or treatment with antidepressants before IVF was associated with slightly reduced odds of pregnancy and live birth. Women with the presence of depression/anxiety without antidepressants had a more pronounced reduction in odds, implying that the underlying disorder is important for the observed association.

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This chapter presents a telehealth system called GiraffPlus supporting independent living of elderly in their own home. GiraffPlus system is a complex system which monitors activities and physiological parameters in the home using a network of sensors. The elaborated information is presented to the primary user, the elderly, and to secondary users like health care and home care providers and possibly to family members as a help to assess possible health and wellbeing deterioration, provide acute alarms, and support health procedure. The secondary users can also visit the elderly via the Giraff, a teleoperated robot that can communicate and move in the home under the control of the secondary user. The chapter focusses in particular on the deployment of the system in six real homes in Sweden, Italy and Spain. The chapter outlines the technological various components used, the expectations of the users and the evaluation method.
