There was no increased risk in the subsequent decades, but a trend test demonstrated a consistent decrease in the risk over the three decades: HR for trend 0.63 (95% CI: 0.44\u20130.90). The raised mortality risk was limited to neonatal mortality. The comparison between dentists and physicians had insufficient statistical power.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n                    There is no increased mortality risk among sons of female dentists after the 1960s. Although the results should be interpreted with caution, they suggest a modestly raised risk of neonatal mortality, during the 1960s, when exposure to mercury was thought to be highest.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,14]],"date-time":"2014-03-14T10:19:01Z","timestamp":1394792341000},"page":"655-661","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Mortality among sons of female dental personnel \u2013 a national cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Aron","family":"Naimi-Akbar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Karolinska Institutet, Division of Dental Biomaterials and Cariology, Department of Dental Medicine, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gunilla","family":"Sandborgh-Englund","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Karolinska Institutet, Division of Dental Biomaterials and Cariology, Department of Dental Medicine, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anders","family":"Ekbom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Epidemiology Unit, Karolinska Institutet, Department of Medicine, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Ekstrand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Epidemiology Unit, Karolinska Institutet, Department of Medicine, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peggy","family":"N\u00e4sman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Karolinska Institutet, Division of Dental Biomaterials and Cariology, Department of Dental Medicine, Stockholm, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Scott","family":"Montgomery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,14]]},"container-title":["Journal of Perinatal Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyterbrill.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270\/xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyterbrill.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270\/pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,15]],"date-time":"2026-02-15T06:10:54Z","timestamp":1771135854000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.degruyterbrill.com\/document\/doi\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270\/html"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,14]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,14]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/jpm-2013-0270","relation":{},"ISSN":["1619-3997","0300-5577"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1619-3997","type":"electronic"},{"value":"0300-5577","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,14]]}}}
