Abstract Introduction In 2020, bladder cancer (BC) was the seventh most prevalent in world, with 5-year prevalence of more than 1.7 million cases. Due to main risk factors—smoking and chemical exposures—associated BC, it is considered a largely preventable avoidable cancer. An overview BC mortality can allow an insight not only into global factors, but also varying efficiency healthcare systems worldwide. For this purpose, study analyzes national estimates for 2020 projected future trends up...

Among malignant diseases, lung cancer has one of the highest mortality and incidence. Most epidemiological studies conclude that Hungary faces most severe burden in association with this disease. However, for various reasons estimates population-based show discrepancies. In study, an intense data cleansing was performed on cases were reported to Hungarian National Cancer Registry 2018, major clinico-pathological parameters as well survival characteristics described. Our figures compared...
