- BACKGROUND: There are difficulties in clinical assessment of patients' health, and there is a need for evaluating instruments that measures self-rated health over time and that are based on the patient's own experiences of their health situation.AIM: To describe the trajectory of self-rated health given in a retrospective health-line and its correspondence with the ratings of health given at six different time points during 2 years following a first breast cancer surgery.DESIGNS AND METHODS: An explorative prospective cohort study presented according to the STROBE guideline. At six time points, 459 women (26-63 years) completed assessments of self-rated health during 2 years following a first breast cancer surgery. Subsequently, the women retrospectively rated health month by month over the two years by means of a health-line. The women were included consecutively in 2007-2009, last data collection was performed in 2012. Statistical analyses were used to compare the health-line with previous ratings.RESULTS: Most women (74-88%) rated their health as good, very good or excellent at all six time points. Health-line ratings were somewhat lower than the ratings made at the actual time-point; however, the illustrated trajectories back in time followed the same patterns as the women had reported during the two years. The lowest ratings of self-rated health were reported at four months after surgery. The retrospective illustrations varied greatly, and poorer health was reported by women undergoing chemotherapy, with lower education and who reported more life events.CONCLUSIONS: Even if the retrospective ratings by the health-line were somewhat lower than the ratings at the actual time-point, the health-line captures the health trajectory. The individual graphic illustration by means of a health-line may serve as a basis for assessment and support patient health narratives. The findings indicate that life event, lower education and chemotherapy influence concurrent and retrospective self-assessment of health.

- On 30 January 2020, the disease covid-19 was declared by the World Health Organization to be an international threat to human health and on 11 March 2020, the outbreak was declared a pandemic. The aim of this study was to analyse policy strategies developed by the five Nordic countries during the first 3 months of the pandemic from a health promotion perspective in order to identify Nordic responses to the crisis. Although the Nordic countries have a long tradition of co-operation as well as similar social welfare policies and legislation, each country developed their own strategies towards the crisis. The strategies identified were analysed from a health promotion perspective emanating from five principles: intersectorality, sustainability, equity, empowerment and a lifecourse perspective. Denmark, Finland and Norway had lockdowns to varying degrees, whereas Sweden and Iceland had no lockdowns. Iceland implemented a test and tracking strategy from the very beginning. All countries based their recommendations and restrictions on appeals to solidarity and trust in institutions and fellow citizens. The analysis showed that the strategies in all countries could be related to health promotion principles with some differences between the countries especially regarding equity and sustainability. The Nordic governments took responsibility for protecting their citizens by developing policy strategies based on restrictions and recommendations congruent with the principles of health promotion. The findings also identified issues that will pose challenges for future pandemic strategies.
