We used the Swedish Family-Cancer Database to examine the time trends of lung cancer in Sweden by histological type, with special reference to gender. A total of 45,297 lung cancer cases were analysed. The overall age-adjusted incidence rates of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in men peaked in the 1980s and then slightly decreased, while corresponding rates in women increased steadily. The incidence
OBJECTIVE: We used the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to analyze the risk for adult (15-61 years) brain tumors in offspring through parental cancer probands. Additionally, cancer risks were assessed among siblings of brain tumor probands.METHODS: In offspring and parents, respectively, 5,425 and 20,938 cases of brain tumors were diagnosed between the years 1958 and 1996. Groups of offsp
We used the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database to analyze the risk for soft tissue tumors in offspring by parental cancers and in siblings of soft tissue tumor probands. Additionally, risk for second cancer following soft tissue tumor was investigated. In offspring, 1488 soft tissue tumors were diagnosed between years 1958 and 1996. Groups of offspring were compared by calculating standardi
Although estimates are available of the proportion of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) among all colorectal cancer (CRC), its proportion among familial CRC is unclear. We estimated these proportions epidemiologically from the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database on 9.6 million individuals. Colorectal adenocarcinomas were retrieved from the Cancer Registry covering years 1958-
We used the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database with 2060 childhood brain tumours diagnosed in the period 1958-1996 to analyse the risk of this tumour by parental cancers and in siblings of childhood brain tumour probands. Groups of patients were compared by calculating standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for brain tumours in offspring. 1.3% of brain tumour patients had a parent with nervou
The Swedish Family-Cancer Database was used to analyse familial relationships in mothers and daughters with invasive and in situ cervical cancers by histological type during the years 1958-1996, including a total of 21,727 and 191,081 cases, respectively. Familial standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated separately for mothers and daughters and for invasive and in situ squamous cell ca
This article examines the novel and film, Balzac et la petite tailleuse chinoise, by the Franco-Chinese writer and filmmaker Dai Sijie, the story of which takes place against the background of the Cultural Revolution. The first part of my analysis will make clear how the film illuminates and dramatizes the special texture, aesthetic, and structure of the novel. I then move on to investigate the li
