  • Mortality and cancer incidence among women with a high consumption of fatty fish contaminated with persistent organochlorine compounds
  • 1995
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - : Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - 0355-3140 .- 1795-990X. ; 21:6, s. 26-419

    • OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess cancer incidence and cardiovascular mortality among women with a high dietary intake of fatty fish from the Baltic Sea (on the Swedish east coast), contaminated with persistent organochlorine compounds.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Cohorts of fishermen's wives from the Swedish east (1989 subjects) and west (6605 subjects) coasts were established. The mortality and cancer incidence were studied in these cohorts, and comparisons were made with respective regional populations and between the cohorts. Dietary interviews were made with 200 randomly selected cohort women and equally many women from the general population. The interviewed east- and westcoast cohort women ate locally caught fatty fish at least twice as often as their referents.RESULTS: Compared with that of the regional population, the breast cancer incidence was higher than expected in the eastcoast cohort [standardized incidence ratio (SIR) 1.29, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.96-1.71], whereas it was lower in the westcoast cohort (SIR 0.89; 95% CI 0.77-1.04). When a direct comparison was made between the two cohorts, the eastcoast women displayed an increased breast cancer incidence (incidence rate ratio 1.35, 95% CI 0.98-1.86). No obvious difference was seen between the two cohorts concerning cardiovascular mortality.CONCLUSIONS: The results support, but do not prove, the hypothesis of an association between exposure to a mixture of persistent organochlorine compounds through fish consumption and an increased risk for breast cancer.

  • Impact of exposure to insulation wool on lung function and cough in Swedish construction workers
  • 1998
  • Ingår i: Occupational and Environmental Medicine. - 1470-7926. ; 55:10, s. 661-667
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether application of insulation wool adversely affects lung volumes and increases the occurrence of symptoms of airway irritation. METHODS: Data from nationwide health check ups in 1981-93 of male construction workers born in 1955 or later were used to investigate cross sectional (n = 96,004) and longitudinal (n = 26,298) associations between lung volumes, vital capacity (VC), and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and exposure to insulation wool by combining a job exposure matrix (JEM) and self reported exposure. Data on 12 month prevalence of persistent cough not associated with the common cold was available for the period 1989-92. Potential confounding from smoking, exposure to asbestos, silica, and isocyanates, was considered in the analyses. RESULTS: For those in the highest exposure category (self reported duration of exposure of > or = 11 years, and high exposure according to the JEM) VC was on average 2.5 cl lower (95% CI -6.5 to 1.5) than in those with no exposure. The corresponding figures for FEV1 was -2.4 cl (95% CI -6.1 to 1.3). In the longitudinal analyses, the yearly change in VC between the first and last spirometry for those in the highest exposure category was 0.50 cl (95% CI -0.97 to 1.98) less than in the unexposed category. The corresponding figure for FEV1 was 0.89 cl (95% CI - 0.70 to 2.06). High exposure to insulation wool, asbestos, or silica, during the 12 months preceding the check up was associated with increased odds ratios (ORs) for persistent cough of the same magnitude as current smoking. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate no effects on VC or FEV1 from exposure to insulation wool. Recent exposure to insulation wool, asbestos, and silica was associated with an increased prevalence of persistent cough.

  • HLA DQ-DR haplotype and susceptibility to cervical carcinoma : indications of increased risk for development of cervical carcinoma in individuals infected with HPV 18
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: Tissue Antigens. - : Wiley. - 0001-2815 .- 1399-0039. ; 48:1, s. 32-37
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The association of HLA class II DQB1 and DRB1 alleles with the development of cervical carcinoma was studied in 150 Swedish patients using PCR-based HPV and HLA typing. The association of cervical carcinoma with alleles encoding the DQ3 antigen, previously found among German and Norwegian patients, was not observed in the Swedish patients. Five DQ-DR haplotypes were indicated to be positively associated with development of cervical carcinoma in the Swedish patients. Two of these HLA associations were specific for HPV 18 infected patients, suggesting that the ability of the oncogenic HPV 18 to cause more rapid-transit tumors than other high risk HPV types may be due to a deficiency in antigen presentation by the HLA molecules encoded by carried on these haplotypes.

  • Human papillomavirus deoxyribonucleic acid in cervix only detected in girls after coitus
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: International journal of STD & AIDS. - : SAGE Publications. - 0956-4624 .- 1758-1052. ; 7:5, s. 333-336
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • In a prospective cohort study on the prevalence of HPV in a group of female Swedish students, we obtained repeated cytological specimens during a period of 2 years, for cytological diagnosis and PCR detection of HPV. The group comprised 98 girls, sampled between 15 and 17 years, and 82 of them completed the study. The girls were also followed every sixth month by a structured face-to-face interview regarding sexuality. Only the sexually experienced girls harboured HPVDNA in the cervix with a cumulative prevalence of 37% and HPV16 was the most common type encountered. Almost half of the infected girls were lacking any clinical or subclinical signs of HPV infection. There was a positive correlation between the presence of HPV and the number of coital partners. The time period since coitarche also had importance for the HPV detection rate.
