The burden of cervical cancer varies considerably in the European Union (EU). In this article, we describe trends incidence and mortality from two most affected areas: Baltic countries (Estonia, Latvia Lithuania) Southeast Europe (Bulgaria Romania). Incidence data were obtained national registries. Data on population number deaths uterine cancers extracted World Health Organization database. Mortality rates corrected for inaccuracies death certification not otherwise specified cancer....
In the last three decades, an increase in thyroid cancer incidence has been observed worldwide, as well Lithuania. Although rise was linked to overdiagnosis, role of lifestyle and environmental factors, including exposure ionizing radiation, cannot be excluded. our retrospective study, we aimed assess association between average age-specific dose due radioactive iodine uptake during childhood adolescence from Chernobyl fallout Lithuania, trends 1991 2015 different regions. Averaged...
The aim of this study was to assess mortality risk in people with schizophrenia Lithuania from 2001 and 2020. Cause-specific all-cause among patients assessed using a retrospective cohort design. identified all diagnosis (ICD-10 code F20) who were admitted the Vilnius Republican Psychiatric Hospital 1 January, December 31, Dates death emigration obtained Central Population Register. standardized ratios (SMRs) calculated by dividing observed number deaths expected deaths, national rates....
To investigate mortality and cancer incidence of cement producing workers.A total 2498 workers who have been employed at Portland departments for least one year from 1956 to 2000 were followed up 1 January 1978 31 December 2000. The cohort contributed 43,490 person-years the study. Standardised ratios (SIR) standardised (SMR) calculated as between observed expected numbers cancers deaths. based on sex specific rates Lithuanian population.Significantly increased SMRs found all malignant...
The aim of this paper is to analyze changes in thyroid cancer incidence trends Lithuania during the period 1978-2003 using joinpoint regression models, with special attention 1993-2003.The study was based on all cases reported Lithuanian Cancer Registry between 1978 and 2003. Age group-specific rates standardized were calculated for each gender, direct method (world standard population). model used provide estimated annual percentage change detect points time where significant occur.During...
Purpose: In this study, we analyzed the mortality and survival of colorectal cancer patients in Lithuania. Methods: This was a national cohort study. Population-based data from Lithuanian Cancer Registry period analyses were collected. Overall, 20,980 included. We examined changes rates between 1998 2012 according to anatomical sub-sites stages. calculated 5-year relative estimates using analysis. Results: cases reported included The total number newly diagnosed cancers increased 1998–2002...
Abstract Objective Due to the inconsistency of evidence about cancer risk among patients with schizophrenia, aim this study was analyse mortality and morbidity in schizophrenia treated a single centre Lithuania during period 1992–2020.

Several markers were found to be potential prognostic factors in ovarian cancer. Among resembling systemic changes the host's organism are of oxidative stress. In this study we attempted analyze oxidant and antioxidant parameters cancer patients. A total 42 patients with newly diagnosed stages I–IV primary ovary examined. Level malondialdehyde (MDA) catalytic activity catalase (CAT) determined spectrophotometrically. Significantly lower CAT (28.2 ± 15.5 vs. 36.1 14.6 nmol/L/min, P = 0.019)...
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is an important factor in the development of various cancers as identifier a defective DNA mismatch repair system. The objective our study was to define association between microsatellite status and traditional clinicopathologic characteristics endometrioid type adenocarcinoma.MSI endometrial cancer examined by employing Promega MSI Analysis System. This system uses 5 mononucleotide markers identify tumour normal tissue (BAT-25, BAT-26, NR-21, NR-24,...
Background Nonmelanoma skin cancer is the most common among white population. Objectives To describe epidemiology of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in Lithuania by analysing population-based incidence, with special emphasis on sex- and subsite-specific changes over time. Methods Data from Lithuanian Cancer Registry for period 1996–2010 were used to analyse trends incidence rates BCC. Only first case BCC per patient was included this analysis. Age-standardized calculated both sexes....
