Asymptomatic atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction: Risk modified by ability to adapt to stressful situations. Results from prospective cohort study "Men born in 1914", Malmo, Sweden

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether different behaviors in a stressful situation modify the risk of atherosclerosis in association with a myocardial infarction, cardiovascular mortality, and all-cause mortality. Many individuals have atherosclerotic changes in their arteries but may never experience any symptoms nor develop cardiovascular disease. A myocardial infarcti

Analysis of Swedish male breast cancer family data : a simple way to incorporate a common sibling effect

Based on a population-based cohort study, Olsson et al. [1993] found significant evidence for elevated incidence of breast and ovarian cancers among female first-degree relatives of men with breast cancer. Using an extension of logistic regressive models we investigate whether, after allowing for multifactorial familial correlations, single locus segregation could be the cause of the elevated inci

Kidney cadmium levels and associations with urinary calcium and bone mineral density: a cross-sectional study in Sweden

Background: Cadmium (Cd) can cause renal damage and osteoporosis after high-level exposure. Recently such effects, including increased urinary excretion of calcium, have been shown also at low-level exposure, as measured by Cd in blood or urine. However, associations with kidney Cd have not been examined. The aim of this study was to explore the relation between kidney Cd and urinary calcium excre

Petrogenesis of ultramafic and mafic xenoliths from Mesozoic basanites in southern Sweden: constraints from mineral chemistry

Jurassic basanite necks occurring at the junction of two major fault zones in Scania contain ultramafic (peridotites, pyroxenites) and mafic xenoliths, which together indicate a diversity of upper mantle and lower crustal assemblages beneath this region. The peridotites can be subdivided into lherzolites, dunites and harzburgites. Most lherzolites are porphyroclastic, containing orthopyroxene and

Contact metamorphism of Palaeozoic shale in southern Sweden: influences on clay mineralogy and implications for railway construction material properties

Abundant shale fragments were observed in dolerite material used for railway construction in western Skane, due to quarrying of Permo-Carboniferous dolerite in contact with Silurian shale (the Colonus Shale) in the Ronnarp Quarry, western Skane. Shale fragments were particularly enriched in the finest fractions of the crushed rock material. We analysed the clay mineralogy of shale from the railway
