TL;DR: In young women who had not been previously infected with HPV-16 or HPV-18, those in the vaccine group had a significantly lower occurrence of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia related to HPV- 16 or HPV -18 than did those inThe placebo group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serotypes of Chlamydia trachomatis and risk for development of cervical squamous cell carcinoma.
Tarja Anttila,Pekka Saikku,Pentti Koskela,Aini Bloigu,Joakim Dillner,Irma Ikäheimo,Egil Jellum,Matti Lehtinen,Per Lenner,Timo Hakulinen,Ale Närvänen,Eero Pukkala,Steinar Thoresen,Linda Youngman,Jorma Paavonen +14 more
TL;DR: The results strengthen the evidence that there is a link between past C trachomatis infection and cervical SCC, and suggest increasing numbers of exposures to different C trACHomatis serotypes also increases risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vera M. Abeler,Odd Røyne,Steinar Thoresen,Håvard E. Danielsen,Jahn M. Nesland,Gunnar B. Kristensen +5 more
TL;DR: To determine the frequency and survival of the various types of uterine sarcoma in the total population of Norway and evaluate histopathological prognostic factors in order to identify risk groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pentti Koskela,Tarja Anttila,Tone Bjørge,Anne Brunsvig,Joakim Dillner,Matti Hakama,Timo Hakulinen,Egil Jellum,Matti Lehtinen,Per Lenner,Tapio Luostarinen,Eero Pukkala,Pekka Saikku,Steinar Thoresen,Linda Youngman,Jorma Paavonen +15 more
TL;DR: Sero‐epidemiologic evidence is provided that infection with C. trachomatis confers an increased risk for subsequent development of invasive squamous‐cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix, with invasive cancer as an end point.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Basal Epithelial Phenotype Is More Frequent in Interval Breast Cancers Compared with Screen Detected Tumors
Karin Collett,Ingunn M. Stefansson,Johan Eide,Audun Braaten,Hege Wang,Geir Egil Eide,Steinar Thoresen,William D. Foulkes,Lars A. Akslen +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that breast cancers with a basal epithelial phenotype are more likely than nonbasal breast cancers to present between regular mammograms, and that p53 expression, age, and breast density were independent predictors of interval cancers.
