Environmental and heritable causes of cancer among 9.6 million individuals in the Swedish Family-Cancer Database.

International journal of cancer - 10 May 2002

Czene Kamila, Lichtenstein Paul, Hemminki Kari

Abstract excerpt

The genetic and environmental components in 15 common cancers were estimated using the nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database. Tetrachoric correlations were used to describe similarity in cancer liability among family members. Structural equation modeling was used to derive estimates of the importance of genetic and environmental effects. Statistically significant estimates of proportion of cancer...
