Journal ArticleDOI
Mammographic Density and Screening Sensitivity, Breast Cancer Incidence and Associated Risk Factors in Danish Breast Cancer Screening.
Elsebeth Lynge,Ilse Vejborg,Zorana Jovanovic Andersen,My von Euler-Chelpin,George Napolitano +4 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that breast tissue in middle-aged women is highly dependent on childhood body constitution while adult life-style plays a modest role, underlying the need for a long-term perspective in primary prevention of breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
HPV-prevalence in elderly women in Denmark.
Berit Andersen,Birgitte Schütt Christensen,Jette Christensen,Dorthe Ejersbo,Hanne Nørgaard Heje,Kirsten Marie Jochumsen,Tonje Johansen,Lise Grupe Larsen,Elsebeth Lynge,Reza Rafiolsadat Serizawa,Petra Hall Viborg,Marianne Waldstrøm +11 more
TL;DR: Invitation to HPV-screening was well received by elderly women, and the HPV-prevalence decreased slightly with increasing age, while no rebound of HPV- prevalence after menopause was found when data was combined with previously published Danish data from younger women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast cancer incidence, case-fatality and breast cancer mortality in Danish women using hormone replacement therapy--a prospective observational study
Claudia Stahlberg,Elsebeth Lynge,Zorana Jovanovic Andersen,Niels Keiding,Bent Ottesen,Fritz Rank,Yrsa Andersen Hundrup,Erik B Obel,Anette Tønnes Pedersen +8 more
TL;DR: The net effect of HRT is investigated, which forms a combined analysis of incidence, prognosis, breast cancer mortality, and all-cause mortality in a population of natural post-menopausal women with an intact uterus and without prior cancer disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Modified Nottingham Prognostic Index for Breast Cancer Patients Diagnosed in Denmark 1978–1994
TL;DR: It seems probable that the stage of disease at diagnosis on average improved in Danish breast cancer patients below age 70 during the 1980s and the early 1990s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hysterectomy and its impact on the calculated incidence of cervical cancer and screening coverage in Denmark.
TL;DR: In Denmark, hysterectomies do not have a large overall impact on the calculated cancer incidence and screening coverage, but at ≥ 65 years adjusted rates would increase by almost 20% compared to unadjusted rates, suggesting that calculating disease risks per organ-years may have a role in understanding the true burden of the disease in a population at risk of developing that disease.
