Although Nigeria has a large HIV epidemic, the impact of on cancer in Nigerians is unknown. We conducted registry linkage study using probabilistic matching algorithm among cohort positive persons registered at health facilities where Institute Human Virology (IHVN) provides prevention and treatment services. Their data was linked to from 2009 2012 Abuja Cancer Registry. Match compatible files with first name, last sex, date birth unique identification numbers were provided by each used for...
Abstract Background Pathologists face major challenges in breast cancer diagnostics sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The problems identified as impairing the quality of pathology reports are shortcomings equipment, organization and insufficiently qualified personnel. In addition, context cancer, immunohistochemistry (IHC) needs to be available for evaluation biomarkers. study presented, we aim describe current state order highlight unmet needs. Methods We obtained information on services within...
Infections by certain viruses, bacteria, and parasites have been identified as risk factors for some cancers. In Nigeria, like many other developing countries, infections remain a leading cause of morbidity mortality. While there are data on the incidence different cancers in has no study attributable to infections. This was carried out determine burden using from two population-based cancer registries (PBCRs) Nigeria.We obtained associated with EBV, human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B...
Abstract The low overall survival rates of patients with breast cancer in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are driven by regionally differing tumor biology, advanced stages at diagnosis, and limited access to therapy. However, it is not known whether regional differences the composition microenvironment (TME) exist affect patients’ prognosis. In this international, multicentre cohort study, 1,237 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples, including samples “African Breast Cancer-Disparities Outcomes...
Introduction Alcohol consumption has been identified as a risk factor for many cancers but less attention paid to the fraction of those that are attributable alcohol consumption. In this study, we evaluated incidence and population (PAF) associated with in Nigeria. Methods We obtained data on from two Population Based Cancer Registries (PBCRs) Nigeria cancer sites which there is strong evidence an association based IARC Monograph 100E. computed each site by age sex, using prevalence relative...
Background: Overweight and obesity are known risk factors for chronic diseases including cancers. In this study, we evaluated the age standardized incidence rates (ASR) proportion of cancers attributable to overweight in Nigeria. Methods: We obtained data from databases two population-based cancer registries (PBCRs) Nigeria (Abuja Enugu registries), on site which there is established evidence an association with or based International Agency Research Cancer World Fund classification....
