While these previous findings provide valuable insights for donor management, blood collection agencies need to be cautious about generalizing findings to other countries as blood donor behaviour is context\u2010specific. To examine cross\u2010country variations in donor behaviour, the repeatability of a previous Dutch study on life events and blood donor lapse is examined by using a sample of Danish donors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Register data from Statistics Denmark was linked to the Scandinavian Donations and Transfusions database (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0152\u00a0887). Logistic regressions were conducted to examine the association between life events in 2009\u20132012 and blood donor lapse in 2013\u20132014.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of the total sample, 69\u00a0079 (45\u00b72%) donors lapsed. Childbirth and losing a job increased the lapsing risk by 11% and 16%, respectively, while health\u2010related events in the family (i.e. blood transfusion, disease and death) decreased the lapsing risk by 5%, 7% and 9%, respectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Life events are associated with donor lapse of Danish donors. These results are comparable to previous findings from the Netherlands (i.e. childbirth and labour market transitions increased lapsing risk; health\u2010related events decreased lapsing risk), with two thirds of the associations being in the same direction. Differences between study results were mainly related to effect sizes and demographic compositions of the donor pools. We argue contextual factors to be of importance in blood donor studies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vox.12842","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,2]],"date-time":"2019-10-02T04:48:15Z","timestamp":1569991695000},"page":"795-807","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Life events and donor lapse among blood donors in Denmark"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"114","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5933-2240","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tjeerd W.","family":"Piersma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Donor Medicine Research Sanquin Research Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Center for Philanthropic Studies Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Sociology Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Immunology, Copenhagen University Hospital Rigshospitalet Copenhagen Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5567-7041","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eva\u2010Maria","family":"Merz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Donor Medicine Research Sanquin Research Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Sociology Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4403-7222","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ren\u00e9","family":"Bekkers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Philanthropic Studies Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Sociology Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0142-7199","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wim","family":"de Kort","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Donor Medicine Research Sanquin Research Amsterdam the Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Social Medicine Academic Medical Center Amsterdam the Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2384-3161","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Steffen","family":"Andersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Finance Copenhagen Business School Frederiksberg Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4436-6798","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Henrik","family":"Hjalgrim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology Research Statens Serum Institut Copenhagen Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6220-9414","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Klaus","family":"Rostgaard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology Research Statens Serum Institut Copenhagen Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4406-9643","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kaspar Ren\u00e9","family":"Nielsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Immunology Aalborg University Hospital Aalborg Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7306-9058","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Henrik","family":"Ullum","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Immunology, Copenhagen University Hospital Rigshospitalet Copenhagen Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0022146519849893"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1108\/JCM-02-2018-2588"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","first-page":"382","article-title":"Individual, contextual and network characteristics of blood donors and non\u2010donors: a systematic review of recent literature","volume":"15","author":"Piersma TW","year":"2017","journal-title":"Blood Transfus"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019027250606900404"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vox.12362"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1423-0410.2009.01297.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/210468"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev-soc-060116-053450"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","unstructured":"DST.Statistics Denmark.https:\/\/www.dst.dk\/en30\u201010\u20102018."},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/trf.12986"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1423-0410.2006.00827.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","unstructured":"SD.The Danish system for access to micro data.
