A correlation analysis was performed on 125 cytogenetically characterized breast cancer cases to assess the relationship between the tumor karyotype and clinicopathologic features. The carcinomas of young women had a higher modal chromosome number than those of older women. The number of chromosomal aberrations and modal chromosome number were also found to correlate with the histologic type, grad
BACKGROUND: The reproducibility of a self-administered questionnaire on different epidemiological variables was examined in a random sample of a cohort of healthy women from the South Swedish Health Care Region. An identical questionnaire has previously been used for assessment of melanoma risk, in a population-based, matched, case-control study from the same region.METHODS: Repeat questionnaires
The incidence of cancer at sites other than the testis has been investigated in the families of 797 Norwegian and 178 Swedish patients diagnosed with testicular cancer during 1981-91. In the families of the Norwegian patients, the total number of cancers in the relatives was significantly lower than the expected number derived from national incidence rates [observed number of cancers 250, expected
Information about occurrence of testicular cancer (TC) in relatives of TC patients has been collected using questionnaires from 797 out of 922 consecutive Norwegian and 178 out of 237 Swedish patients with TC seen at the Norwegian Radium Hospital and the University Hospital Lund in Sweden during 1981-91. Fifty-one Norwegian and five Swedish patients had a relative with confirmed TC. Thus, 51/922 (
The relation between use of sunscreens, different host factors and malignant melanoma was investigated in a population-based, matched case-control study of malignant melanoma in the South Swedish Health Care Region, which has the highest risk for melanoma in Sweden, between 1 July 1988 and 30 June 1990. In total, 400 melanoma patients and 640 healthy controls aged 15-75 years answered a comprehens
A case-control study of 177 premenopausal and 216 postmenopausal breast cancer patients diagnosed in the southern Swedish Health Care Region between 1981 and 1984, and 195 premenopausal and 254 postmenopausal controls randomly chosen during 1984 from the same population by means of a computerized population register was used to estimate the relations among alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, a
In a population-based, matched case-control study from the South Swedish Health Care Region, which has the highest risk for melanoma in Sweden, the relation between the use of sunbeds or sunlamps and malignant melanoma was investigated. Between July 1, 1988, and June 30, 1990, a total of 400 melanoma patients and 640 healthy controls aged 15-75 years answered a comprehensive questionnaire containi
This reports presents the results of an excavation conducted next to the west front of the cathedral in Trondheim. In all 11 phases of activity pre-dating the construction of the cathedral were recorded. The earliest features on the site are interpreted as representing part of a late 9th or 10th century farmstead. Thick deposits of soapstone chips are related to various phases of the buildning of
