    Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 17:2663-70. 2008
    ..Menopausal status and age at menopause were not associated with meningioma or glioma risk. Our findings imply that reproductive hormones may influence the occurrence of meningioma and glioma...
  2. ncbi Long-term mobile phone use and brain tumor risk
    Stefan Lonn
    Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Box 210, S 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden
    Am J Epidemiol 161:526-35. 2005
    ..This study includes a large number of long-term mobile phone users, and the authors conclude that the data do not support the hypothesis that mobile phone use is related to an increased risk of glioma or meningioma...
  3. ncbi Incidence trends of adult primary intracerebral tumors in four Nordic countries
    Stefan Lonn
    Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
    Int J Cancer 108:450-5. 2004
    ..This increase was largely confined to the oldest age group. After 1983 and during the period with increasing prevalence of mobile phone users, the incidence has remained relatively stable for both men and women...

    Stefan Lonn
    Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, S 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden
    Epidemiology 15:653-9. 2004
    ..Radiofrequency exposure from mobile phones is concentrated to the tissue closest to the handset, which includes the auditory nerve. If this type of exposure increases tumor risk, acoustic neuroma would be a potential concern...
  6. ncbi Allergic conditions and brain tumor risk

    ..60, 0.91). Our results show a reduced risk for glioma associated primarily with current allergic conditions. If this is etiologic, it has implications for the understanding of how allergic conditions might reduce the tumor risk...
  7. ncbi Cohort studies of association between self-reported allergic conditions, immune-related diagnoses and glioma and meningioma risk
    Judith Schwartzbaum
    Division of Epidemiology, Institute for Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
    Int J Cancer 106:423-8. 2003
    ..In Cohort III, immune-related discharge diagnoses are also inversely associated with glioma (HR = 0.46; 95% CI = 0.14-1.49). There is no strong evidence against (and some for) the hypothesis that allergies reduce glioma risk...
  8. ncbi Risk of brain tumors associated with exposure to exogenous female sex hormones

    ..7 (95% confidence interval: 0.9, 7.5). Hormone usage was not associated with glioma risk in this study. The findings suggest that the use of female sex steroids may increase the risk of meningioma...

    Stefan Lonn
    Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
    Am J Epidemiol 164:637-43. 2006
    ..The risk estimate did not increase, regardless of type of phone and amount of use. The authors conclude that the data do not support the hypothesis that mobile phone use is related to an increased risk of parotid gland tumors...

    Mirna Abraham-Nordling
    Department of Molecular Medicine and Surgery Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
    Eur J Endocrinol 160:437-41. 2009
