1. Methodological aspects on excess cancer riskafter exposure to ionizing radiation
Sammanfattning : Aims. The aims of this study were to establish a cohort of persons treated with radiotherapy for skin haemangioma in childhood and study the excess risk of cancer after exposure to ionizing radiation. LÄS MER
2. On ionising radiation and breast cancer risk
Sammanfattning : Background: It is well known that exposure to ionising radiation increases the risk for breast cancer occurrence. However, better understanding of breast cancer risks in terms of dose-response relationships formulated according to radiobiological target theories, age-at-exposure patterns and temporal dependence are important for the understanding of the underlying biological mechanism of radiation carcinogenesis as well as for the concern about possible risks associated with the very low doses received from routine mammographic screening.

3. Party membership and state subsidies : a comparative study
Sammanfattning : This thesis tests the hypothesis that increasing state subsidies to political parties cause a declined party membership. The theory that predicted this development was constructed by Epstein in 1967 and presented in his book Political Parties in Western Democracies. LÄS MER
4. Targeting the human papillomavirus for prevention of cervical cancer
Sammanfattning : Different types of human papillomavirus (HPV) vary in the extent they cause precursor lesions (CIN) and cancer. There are limited long-term efficacy data on HPV testing in primary screening Among 72 cervical cancers in Mozambique, HPV 16 and 18 were the most frequent HPV types (69% of cases). LÄS MER
5. Mortality and cancer incidence following cerebral angiography with thorotrast
Sammanfattning : Epidemiological studies are important tools in assessing radiation-related health effects in humans. The most common form of radiation exposure is low-dose alpha-radiation such as that from radon. However, the long-term health effects of low-dose radiation are incompletely known. LÄS MER
