Young patients with risk factors prevalent in the elderly - differences in comorbidity depending on severity of psoriasis: a nationwide cross-sectional study in Swedish health registers.

abstract：:Introduction: Spontaneous (non-traumatic) subarachnoid hemorrhage (ntSAH) is frequently suspected in the emergency department, but the incidence rate is low. Diagnosis registers can provide valuable data for research in uncommon conditions like ntSAH. Unfortunately, validity vary in the registers. We aimed to assess t...
