Osteoporotic fractures are common in Sweden. of 2300 men followed with six repeat examinations during 40 years and within the large Swedish twin registry.

Purpose: The goal of the Swedish Twin Registry (STR) is to provide a longitudinal research infrastructure in the form of a population-based twin cohort of adequate size and content to enable powerful epidemiological and molecular medical studies.

Since that time, the Registry has been expanded and updated on several The Swedish Twin Registry : establishment of a biobank and other recent developments Magnusson, Patrik K. E. (författare) Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden Twin Research and Human Genetics has just published an overview article of the Swedish Twin Registry (STR). The registry has developed into an infrastructure of broad utility, aiming to provide a resource for epidemiological and molecular studies of twins. The Swedish Twin Registry (STR) was established in the late 1950s to investigate the role of environmental factors such as smoking and alcohol on disease. Since then, the STR has developed into an infrastructure of broad utility, with the mission to provide a longitudinal resource for epidemiological and molecular studies of twins. The Swedish Twin Registry (containing approximately 70 000 twin pairs born 1886–1990) has been developed into a unique resource for clinical, epidemiological and genetic studies. So far more than 370 papers have been published using the The Swedish Twin Registry.

The Swedish Twin Registry (STR) is currently in the final phase of a complete telephone interview screening of all twins born in 1958 or earlier regardless of gender composition or vital status of the pair. This effort is known as Screening Across the Lifespan Twin study (SALT). The Swedish Twin Registry: establishment of a biobank and other recent developments. Twin Res Hum Genet.

The Swedish Twin Registry (STR) today contains more than 194,000 twins and more than 75,000 pairs have zygosity determined by an intra-pair similarity algorithm, DNA, or by being of opposite sex. Of these, approximately 20,000, 25,000, and 30,000 pairs are monozygotic, same-sex dizygotic, and opposite-sex dizygotic pairs, respectively.

The Swedish Twin Registry, managed by Karolinska Institutet is the largest of its kind and has become an invaluable resource for medical research. The Registry was established in the 1960s and contains information about some 85 000 twin pairs for which zygosity is known, both mono- and dizygotic pairs.

The Swedish Twin Registry, managed by Karolinska Institutet is the largest of its kind and has become an invaluable resource for medical research. The Registry was established in the 1960s and contains information about some 87 000 twin pairs for which zygosity is known, both mono- and dizygotic pairs.
