Description

PcBaSe Sweden is a data base for clinical epidemiological prostate cancer research based on linkages between the National Prostate Cancer Register (NPCR) of Sweden, a nationwide population-based quality database and other nationwide registries. In the period 1996-2009, 110 000 cases have been registered in NPCR with detailed data on tumour characteristics and primary treatment available. In addition, there are five controls per case.

By use of the individually unique person identity number, the NPCR has been linked to the Swedish National Cancer Register, the Cause of Death Register, the Prescribed Drug Register, the National Patient Register, and the Acute Myocardial Infarction Register, the Register of the Total Population, the Longitudinal Integration database for health insurance and labour market studies (LISA), the Multi-Generation Register and several other population-based registers.

Purpose:

To provide a platform for prostate cancer research. The data base allows for population-based observational studies with case-control, cohort, or longitudinal case only design that can be used
