   Sammanfattning : Background Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a relatively rare hematological malignancy with a constant incidence of approximately 90 new cases each year in Sweden (0.9 cases/100 000 inhabitants). The etiology is largely unknown but high doses of ionizing radiation are a known but rare risk factor. LÄS MER

3. 2. Associations of type 2 diabetes mellitus with cancer and autoimmune diseases. A population-based epidemiological study in Sweden

   Författare :Xiangdong Liu; Allmänmedicin och klinisk epidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 2 diabetes mellitus; cancer; autoimmune disease; cause of death; hazard ratio; standardized incidence ratio; survival; risk factor;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis aimed to search for epidemiological evidence supporting the associations of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with cancer and autoimmune diseases (ADs) by analysing several Swedish national registries. T2DM shares risk factors with cancer, such as obesity, diet, stress, and physical inactivity. LÄS MER

4. 3. Studies on the Epidemiology of Open-angle Glaucoma

   Författare :Curt Ekström; Albert Alm; Bertil Lindblom; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Ophtalmology; Open-angle glaucoma; Epidemiology; Capsular glaucoma; Chronic simple glaucoma; Normal tension glaucoma; Pseudoexfoliation; Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma; Prevalence; Incidence; Intraocular pressure; Oftalmiatrik;

   Sammanfattning : Glaucoma is a common disease in the elderly population. Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the predominant form of glaucoma. Chronic simple glaucoma and capsular glaucoma, characterized by the occurrence of pseudoexfoliation in the anterior eye segment, are the most frequent types of OAG. LÄS MER

5. 4. AL amyloidosis : Study of epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment with emphasis on heart involvement

   Författare :Sara Rosengren; Kristina Carlson; Jens Sörensen; Stefan Schönland; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immunoglobulin light chain AL amyloidosis; high-dose melphalan; cardiac amyloidosis; positron emission tomography PET ; incidence; population-based; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Sammanfattning : AL (immunoglobulin light chain) amyloidosis is often associated with delayed diagnosis and thereby high early mortality that is not overcome by contemporary treatment. There is a need for diagnostic methods promoting earlier diagnosis, especially in patients with cardiac involvement. LÄS MER

7. 5. Strategies for assessing health risks from two occupational cohorts within the domain of northern Sweden

   Författare :Ove Björ; Tohr Nilsson; Håkan Jonsson; Lena Damber; Per Gustavsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cohort; mortality; incidence; risk; rate; cancer; cerebrovascular diseases; exposure; occupational; mining; industry; worker; Poisson regression; Cox regression; SMR; causal inference; G-estimation; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin; epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Studies based on a cohort design requires access to both subject-specific and period-specific information. In order to conduct an occupational cohort study, access to exposure information and the possibility and permission to link information on outcomes from other registers are generally necessary.
