The analysis of cancer trends in Japan requires periodic updating. Herein, we present a comprehensive report on the incidence and mortality using recent population-based data. National data between 1958 2013 were obtained from published vital statistics. Cancer 1985 2010 high-quality registries three prefectures (Yamagata, Fukui Nagasaki). Joinpoint regression was performed to examine age-standardized rates mortality. All-cancer decreased mid-1990s, with an annual percent change −1.3% (95%...
Background: Unlike many North American and European countries, Japan has observed a continuous increase in cancer incidence over the last few decades. We examined most recent trends population-based mortality Japan.
Little is known about cancer incidence among children and youths in Japan. We aimed to describe Japan focusing on childhood, adolescence young adulthood (AYA). Cancer data were obtained from the Monitoring of Incidence project. For 2009–2011 incidence, collected 40 prefectures, which 27 prefectures meeting quality standards analyzed (population coverage: 38.6%). Cancers diagnosed 0–39 years age classified according International Classification Childhood (version 3). Crude rates (including...
Most patients suffering from cancer die of metastatic disease. Surgical removal solid tumors is performed as an initial attempt to cure patients; however, surgery often accompanied with trauma, which can promote early recurrence by provoking detachment tumor cells into the blood stream or inducing systemic inflammation both. We have previously reported that administration atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) during perioperative period reduces inflammatory response and has a prophylactic effect...
In this retrospective study, we aimed to clarify the risk of developing a second primary cancer and determine periods high cancers. Subjects were all patients who had been diagnosed with first registered Nagasaki Prefecture Cancer Registry between 1985 2007. We calculated standardized incidence ratio (SIR) according site years after diagnosis cancer. A developed in 14 167 174 477 subjects (8.1%) during median follow-up 1.8 years. The SIR was 1.10 (95% confidence interval, 1.08-1.11). Some...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is globally one of the most common cancers. Although studies have found a significant prognostic impact location for right-sided colon cancers compared with those left-side, evidence lacking in Japanese population. Therefore, we investigated 5-year net survival by tumor site population.Diagnoses obtained between 2006 and 2008 21 population-based registries from Monitoring Cancer Incidence Japan (MCIJ) project were used. Colon patients categorized as having...
ABSTRACT Despite the importance of genetic testing for risk assessment and treatment in breast cancer, prognostic impact germline pathogenic variants (PVs), especially Asian populations, is unclear. We assessed PVs patients with early‐stage cancer. This study included 7278 Japanese multihospital registry patients. ATM , BRCA1 BRCA2 CDH1 CHEK2 NBN NF1 PALB2 PTEN STK11 TP53 were evaluated. PV non‐PV carriers matched by age, histology, stage. Associations between survival assessed. The primary...
ABSTRACT While male breast cancer (MBC) remains a rare and understudied disease, comparatively little is known about its prognosis in contrast to female (FBC). There paucity of large population‐based studies comparing the MBC patients FBC Japan. This study analyzed 181,540 cases, 1058 (0.6%) males 180,482 (99.4%) females, from 12 prefectures Japan diagnosed between 1993 2011. Five‐ ten‐year net survival (NS) were estimated stratified by sex, period, age, stage, histological groups. Excess...
The This study estimated the cancer burden attributable to modifiable factors in Japan 2015 using best available epidemiological evidence and a standard methodology. We selected following for inclusion estimates, namely tobacco smoking (active secondhand smoking), alcohol drinking, excess bodyweight, physical inactivity, infectious agents (
Cancer in children, adolescents, and young adults (AYAs) although rare, is the leading disease-specific cause of death Japan. This study aims to investigate cancer incidence type treatment hospital among children AYAs data (2016-2018) for those aged 0-39 years were obtained from Japanese population-based National Registry. types classified according 2017 update International Classification Childhood (Third Edition), AYA Site Recode 2020 Revision. Cases also categorized into three groups:...
Continued decrease in smoking prevalence and increasing use of sensitive diagnostic procedures necessitate updated monitoring trends lung cancer incidence Japan. We analyzed histology- stage-specific 1993 to 2015 using data from 62 870 diagnosed cases the Monitoring Cancer Incidence Japan project. After applying a multiple imputation approach impute missing/unknown values stage histology, we estimated age-standardized rates applied joinpoint regression analyses. observed long-term growth...
To estimate cumulative incidence and mortality risk for gastric cancer by category.Risk was classified into four types according to the presence/absence of Helicobacter pylori infection chronic atrophic gastritis: in order lowest highest risk, Group A: H. pylori(-) gastritis(-); B: pylori(+) C:H. gastritis(+); and, D: gastritis(+). We used vital statistics crude all-cause rates 2011 data from population-based registries (the Monitoring Cancer Incidence Japan) 2011. For relative prevalence,...
Abstract Background: We provide comprehensive sex-stratified projections of cancer prevalence for 22 sites in Japan from 2020 to 2050. Methods: Using a scenario-based approach, we projected by combining incidence cases and survival probabilities. Age-specific incidences were forecasted using age–period–cohort models, while rates estimated period-analysis approach multiple parametric models. To understand changes prevalence, decomposition analysis was conducted, assessing the contributions...
Two p-type semiconducting donor-acceptor polymers were designed and synthesized for use in organic solar cells. The combine a benzodithiophene (BDT) donor thiazole-fused benzothiadiazole (TzBT) acceptor. TzBT acceptor units are compared, one with an alkylthio group (P1) the other more strongly electron-withdrawing alkylsulfonyl (P2) at fused thiazole ring. electron-accepting nature of unit lowers lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy P1 P2 relative to that BT analog (PBDT-BT),...
Abstract Background: This study aimed to assess long-term trends in the incidence of prostate cancer by stage at diagnosis before and after introduction population-based PSA screening.

Three kinds of survival rates are generally used depending on the purpose investigation: overall, cause-specific, and relative. The differences among these 3 derived from their respective formulas; however, reports based actual cancer registry data few because incomplete information short follow-up duration recorded registration. aim this study was to numerically visually compare basis Nagasaki Prefecture Cancer Registry. Subjects were patients diagnosed with registered in between 1999 2003....
We compared resistive heating (RH) and upper-body convective warming (CW) in 70 patients (RH 33, CW 31, 6 excluded) undergoing major abdominal surgery. The effect of RH was not inferior to that for the time-weighted average core temperature, lower limit 95% greater than −0.5°C. Resistive showed no inferiority maintaining temperature with warming.
Tobacco is the greatest single cause of many non-communicable diseases, including cancer. We calculated proportion cancer incidence and mortality in 2015 attributable to tobacco smoking exposure secondhand smoke (SHS). Data on prevalence active were derived from 2005 Japanese National Health Nutrition Survey by age group gender. For SHS prevalence, data a nationwide cross-sectional survey 2004-2005 used. Based standard formulas, population fractions (PAFs) for each causally associated with...
