The IEEE Spectrum magazine reported the following:

Yep. Using the NCI statistics I previously excavated, the incidence
of new brain and CNS cases is about 6 cases per 100,000 population per
year. The current population of Sweden is 9.2 million. Assuming the
same cancer rate in Sweden as the US, that's 552 cases of brain cancer
per year. Where did they find 905 brain cancer victims in a country
that only generates 552 cases per year? Perhaps the numbers seem a
bit odd?

I haven't read the original report, but my guess(tm) the 240% higher
risk is due to statistical anomalies resulting from using small
samples culled from extremely small incidence rates. All it takes is
one or two more events (cases), and the results look like 100% or 200%
increases.
