Tobacco use among Swedish schoolchildren
The high prevalence of snus use in Sweden not only reduces smoking rates among Swedish men, but suppresses smoking among boys as well
Seven Year Follow-up of Smoking Cessation with Smokeless Tobacco
This study evaluated the tobacco use status of 63 subjects seven years after enrollment in a single-intervention smoking cessation study employing smokeless tobacco (SLT) as a nicotine substitute. Information about tobacco use and cessation attempts was obtained in interviews. The duration of follow-up and of smoke-free periods were derived from the date of the subject's enrollment and were expressed as person-years (p-y). Because the study focus…

Small election in Luxembourg or how not to elect a committee
In March this year the European Parliament (EP) re-elected its Staff Committee using a list system of PR. The working of the system illustrates some of the defects of list systems in general. The composition of the EP's Staff Committee and the method of electing it are set out in the 'Rules governing representation of the staff of the European Parliament Secretariat' (29.1.1987), hereinafter: 'Rules'. The Staff Committee is re-elected every two y…
A prospective follow-up study of cancer mortality in relation to serum DDT
Serum DDT and DDE levels were measured in 919 subjects in 1974 and 1975. Two-hundred and nine of the subjects died, including 54 from cancer, during a 10-year prospective follow-up period. There was no relation between either overall mortality or cancer mortality and increasing serum DDT levels. There was weak evidence of a positive relation between respiratory cancer mortality and serum DDT. The literature on DDT and human cancer is reviewed, an…

Brain cancer and nonoccupational risk factors
In a nested case-control study of nuclear workers, 82 brain cancer cases were compared with 328 matched controls to investigate the possible association with nonoccupational risk factors such as histories of epilepsy or head injury. We observed a moderately strong association between brain cancer occurrence and history of epilepsy (OR = 5.7, 95 per cent CI: 1.0, 32.1), but did not find a positive association with previous head injury (OR = 0.9, 9…

Oral contraceptive use
A questionnaire was mailed to 97,364 married women, aged 26--50, resident in Greater Boston in 1970, requesting information on lifetime oral contraceptive (OC) use, reproductive history, education, and hospitalization experience in 1969; 65,843 women responded. In 1973 a second questionnaire was mailed to 37,292 of these women, including all OC users and an equal number of non-users matched on age, parity, education, and town of residence. This q…
Attributable risk percent in case-control studies
Factors affecting response to postal questionnaires
Epidemiological studies of chronic diseases often use data gathered individually from many persons, rather than remaining restricted to pre-recorded data. Generally this is done by personal interview, an expensive, time-consuming procedure. The increasing educational level and social conscious- ness of the population suggest that a carefully designed, highly objective postal questionnaire could substitute for an interview. However, the validity o…
