NCT06209515 · ACTIVE NOT RECRUITING
Sociodemographic Factors and Criminal Behaviour Preceding Neurodegenerative Disease - Retrospective Register Study
This is not a clinical treatment trial. It is a Finnish records-based research study examining whether people later diagnosed with a neurodegenerative disease showed changes in behavior, employment, income, or criminal activity in the years before and after diagnosis. Researchers are linking hospital records to national registries to look for early social warning signs of neurodegeneration. No phase is assigned because no intervention is being tested.
You may qualify if
- The diagnosis of neurodegenerative disease (ICD-10) in KUH or OUH between the years 2010-2021
- Age, sex and residency matched controls (Every research patient has 10 controls matched by age, gender, and place of residency)
You're excluded if
- Patients will be divided into different diagnostic groups based on the accepted diagnostic criteria in use. If some of the formed groups contain less than 5 subjects, the disease group in question is excluded from the analyses in order to ensure the privacy protection of the subjects
