Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS NUR0xK13. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. We previously showed that infectious exposures may be involved in the aetiology of adult glioma, by analysing for space-time clustering using population-based data from the South of the Netherlands. Here we extended these analyses and describe in detail the space-time clustering patterns in glioma subgroups, gender and age-categories. Knox tests for space-time interactions between cases were applied with fixed thresholds of close in space, |
