Abstract Background Long-term exposure to air pollution is a hypothesized risk factor for ischemic stroke. In a large case-control study with a complete study base, we investigated whether hospital...

Abstract Background Mutations altering BLM function are associated with highly elevated cancer susceptibility (Bloom syndrome). Thus, genetic variants of BLM and proteins that form complexes with...
Ranking of genome-wide association scan signals by different measures (2009)
Strömberg, Ulf, Björk, Jonas, Vineis, Paolo, Broberg, Karin, Zeggini, Eleftheria
Background The P-value approach has been employed to prioritizing genome-wide association (GWA) scan signals, with a genome-wide significance defined by a prior P-value threshold, although this is...
Prevalence of widespread pain and associations with work status: a population study (2008)
Gerdle, Björn, Björk, Jonas, Cöster, Lars, Henriksson, KG, Henriksson, Chris, Bengtsson, Ann
Abstract Background This population study based on a representative sample from a Swedish county investigates the prevalence, duration, and determinants of widespread pain (WSP) in the population...
Oudin, Anna, Björk, Jonas, Strömberg, Ulf
Abstract Background We plan to conduct a case-control study to investigate whether exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) increases the risk of stroke. In case-control studies, selective participation...

Constitutional short telomeres are strong genetic susceptibility markers for bladder cancer (2005)
Broberg, Karin, Björk, Jonas, Paulsson, Karin, Höglund, Mattias, Albin, Maria
Lack of functional telomeres can cause chromosomal aberrations. This type of genetic instability may promote tumorigenesis. We have investigated the association between mean telomere length in buccal...

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the association between occupational and hobby exposure and the risk of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) while focusing on differential patterns of clonal...
Effects of systematic exposure assessment errors in partially ecologic case-control studies. (2002)
BACKGROUND: In ecologic studies, group-level rather than individual-level exposure data are used. When using group-level exposure data, established by sufficiently large samples of individual...
Estimating attributable fraction in partially ecologic case-control studies. (2002)
Partially ecologic case-control studies combine group-level exposure data with individual-level data on disease status, group membership, and covariates. If the exposure measure is the exposure...

Abnormal Nuclear Shape in Solid Tumors Reflects Mitotic Instability
Gisselsson, David, Björk, Jonas, Höglund, Mattias, Mertens, Fredrik, Dal Cin, Paola, Åkerman, Måns, ...
Abnormalities in nuclear morphology are frequently observed in malignant tissues but the mechanisms behind these phenomena are still poorly understood. In this study, the relation between abnormal...
