16. Mammographic density and breast cancer phenotypes
Sammanfattning : Mammographic density is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer and has been thoroughly studied as such. Extensive mammographic density also decreases screening sensitivity, thereby increasing the risk of interval cancers. LÄS MER
17. Flying personnel : cancer, acute myocardial infarction and mortality
Sammanfattning : Aim: Flying personnel are exposed to several factors in the work environment that can potentially increase their cancer incidence, mortality and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) incidence. The aim of this licentiate thesis is to study cancer incidence among Swedish cabin crew in relation to exposures in the work environment and to study mortality and AMI incidence in Swedish airline and military flying personnel.

18. Human papillomavirus as a target for cancer prevention
Sammanfattning : If we would know more about virus causing cancer, we would have the possibility to prevent the disease. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) causes cervical cancer and is one of the world’s most common sexually transmitted diseases (STD). LÄS MER
19. Cancer risks and prognosis in familial melanoma kindreds
Sammanfattning : Malignant melanoma of the skin is one of the most rapidly increasing cancers in many western countries, including Sweden. This incidence rise is mainly attributed to sun-seeking habits with increased intermittent UVR exposure, a major risk factor for melanoma. LÄS MER
20. Functional studies of microRNAs in development and cancer
Sammanfattning : MicroRNAs (miRNAs) COMPRISE a large family of small (~23 nucleotide in length), endogenous RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. Functional studies have indicated that miRNAs participate in the regulation of nearly all cellular processes investigated so far, including differentiation, apoptosis, and proliferation. LÄS MER
