Geographical risk of fatal and non-fatal injuries among adults in Norway
2021, InjuryCitation Excerpt :The country covers 13 degrees northern latitude from south to north. Previous studies have shown associations between trauma outcomes and geographic location [3–10], and several groups have found higher mortality rates in rural compared to urban areas in Norway [11–13]. Kristiansen et al. reported a 33% higher trauma-related mortality rate in rural areas of Norway.
The relationship between geographic location and outcomes following injury: A scoping review
2019, InjuryCitation Excerpt :Of all studies reporting mortality outcomes (n = 35), ten did not adjust for any potential confounding factors [13,15,32,33,41,43–47]. A number of papers adjusted for age (n = 8) [11,12,17,39,48–51]; age and gender (n = 5) [9,14,18,52,53]; and age, gender and injury severity (n = 3) [40,54,55]. One study adjusted for age and injury severity [56].
