Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There are limited data available on tumour subtype-specific familial risks for nervous-system tumours. We aimed to provide such data at the population level. METHODS: We used data from the nationwide Swedish and Norwegian databases on familial cancer to calculate standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) for the familial risk of developing a nervous-system tumour in offspring born after 1931 (Sweden) or...
