The objectives were to describe Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) incidence trends the US liver cancer mortality by geography, age, race/ethnicity, gender.
Abstract BACKGROUND. The current study was undertaken to evaluate the spatiotemporal projection models applied by American Cancer Society predict number of new cancer cases. METHODS. Adaptations a model that has been used since 2007 were evaluated. Modeling is conducted in 3 steps. In step I, ecologic predictors variation are estimate age‐specific incidence counts for every county country, providing an even those areas missing data specific years. Step II adjusts I estimates reporting...
ABSTRACT Background This report represents a collaborative effort by the major cancer surveillance organizations to present definitive US statistics for incidence and mortality. Methods Cancer data were obtained from population‐based registries funded Centers Disease Control Prevention National Institute compiled North American Association of Central Registries. death Center Health Statistics' Vital Statistics System. are reported type, sex, race ethnicity, age. The potential impact...
Abstract Background: In the United States, prostate cancer incidence is higher among black than white males, with a proportion of blacks diagnosed advanced-stage cancer. Methods: Prostate (1999-2001) and census tract data were obtained for 66,468 cases in four states that account 20% U.S. blacks: Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee. Spatial clusters localized-stage detected by spatial scan. Clusters examined relative risk, population density, socioeconomic racial attributes. Results:...
To determine if differences in screening and vaccination patterns across the population may accentuate ethnic geographic variation future burden of disease.Using Cancer North America data provided by American Association Central Registries, county cervical cancer incidence trends from 1995 to 2009 were modeled for entire United States using ecologic covariates. Rates health service areas also ethnicity. State-level was mapped together with Papanicolaou (Pap) screening, past 3 years (women ≥...

Background: The American Cancer Society publishes Facts & Figures every year to provide estimated incidence rates and case counts for the current calendar year.Childhood cancer (children aged 0-14 with all cancer) was also reported in Figures, but there is no report on patients 15-19 years of age or combined 0-19 age, major childhood cancers such as leukemia.There may be different effects socioeconomic status geography comparison adults.Therefore, models used predict need modified accurately...
