Kerstin Bergman följer traditionen från 1800-talets och det tidiga 1900-talets äventyrliga detektivberättelser, via den svenska pusseldeckarens guldålder efter andra världskriget och polisromanens stora genombrott i mitten av 1960-talet, fram till den svenska deckarens andra guldålder och trenderna i de senaste decenniernas enorma deckarboom.

Det ord som finns på grekiska för krig, polemos, har i senare europeiska språk avsatt polemik. Svenskans krig, tyskans Krieg, engelskans war, franskans guerre, italienskans guerra – inget av dessa ord stammar från polemos. Det är ett intressant faktum. Hur ska vi tolka det? Är det moderna europeiska kriget ett fenomen som till skillnad från så mycket annat inte går att härleda från grekerna? Och om

The importance of genetic factors in the etiology of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is suggested by case-control and cohort studies. Most previous studies have been too small to estimate accurately risks of specific categories of lymphoproliferative malignancies in relatives of NHL cases or to quantify the contribution of NHL case characteristics to familial risk. We have overcome sample size limitati

The authors used the Swedish Family-Cancer Database to search for evidence for a genetic predisposition in lung cancer. Familial risks in offspring were increased for all lung cancer to 1.77 when a parent was affected with any lung cancers; the comparable risk among siblings was 2.15. At young age, risks between siblings were higher than those between offspring and parents for all histological typ

An international multicentre study of first and second primary neoplasms associated with male breast cancer was carried out by pooling data from 13 cancer registries. Among a total of 3409 men with primary breast cancer, 426 (12.5%) developed a second neoplasia; other than breast cancer, a 34% overall excess risk of second primary neoplasia, affecting the small intestine (standardised incidence ra

Multiple primary cancers arise because of inherited or acquired deficiencies, and their causes may depend on the first primary cancer, or they may be entirely independent. We used a nation-wide family dataset to search for evidence for a genetic predisposition to lung cancer. The Swedish Family-Cancer Database includes all Swedes born in 1932 and later with their parents, totalling over 10.2 milli

The role of hereditary factors in lung cancer is less well understood than in many other human neoplastic diseases. We used a nation-wide family dataset to search for evidence for a genetic predisposition in lung cancer. The Swedish Family-Cancer Database includes all Swedes born in 1932 and later (0- to 68-year-old offspring) with their parents, totaling over 10.2 million individuals. Cancer case

We used the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to examine the risk for testicular cancer in offspring through parental and sibling probands. Among 0-68-year-old offspring, 4082 patients had testicular cancer in years 1961-2000, among whom 68 (1.67%) had an affected father/brother. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for familial risk were four-fold when a father and nine-fold when a broth

Socio-economic gradients are known to exist in cancer but we want to focus on the university-educated population and specifically on physicians to find out whether their special educational background on cancer causation helps them to avoid cancers. The analysis was based on the latest update of the Swedish Family-Cancer Database, in which the educational level was obtained from the national censu
