  • Title: [A study of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease during 1985-96. No indication of cases of the "mad cow disease" in Sweden].
    Author: Lundberg PO.
    Journal: Lakartidningen; 1999 Feb 10; 96(6):626-7. PubMed ID: 10087810.
    Abstract:
    A retrospective study of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in Sweden during the period 1985-96 yielded an annual incidence of 1.18 per million. Data for incidence, age distribution (at onset and at death), and duration of illness were similar to those of other countries, with the exception of new variant CJD (nvCJD) cases in the UK, and as far as can be judged the symptomatology was also similar. So far, there is no indication of the occurrence of any cases of nvCJD in Sweden.
