Data from a large case-control study of male lung cancer in northern Sweden were used for a pilot study concerning possible association between type of dwelling (indoor radon) and lung cancer. The study illustrated the possibilities of retrospective assessment of building type and confounding factors of importance as smoking and occupation and can therefore have methodologic value for further investigations. The study suggested that, within the region, increased indoor radon due to building material was not an important cause of lung cancer. Leakage of radon from the ground could, however, not be considered in the present study and the used radon measure was very crude (years in non-wooden houses).
来自瑞典北部一项关于男性肺癌的大型病例对照研究的数据被用于一项关于居住类型（室内氡）与肺癌之间可能关联的试点研究。该研究说明了回顾性评估建筑类型以及吸烟和职业等重要混杂因素的可能性，因此对进一步调查可能具有方法学价值。该研究表明，在该地区，因建筑材料导致的室内氡增加并非肺癌的重要病因。然而，本研究未考虑来自地面的氡泄漏情况，且所采用的氡测量方法非常粗略（非木结构房屋居住年限）。
