INTRODUCTION: Rectal cancer surgery has been characterized by a high incidence of local recurrence, an occurrence which influences survival negatively. In Norway there was growing recognition that recurrence rates were related to surgeon performance and surgeons applying standardized surgical technique in the form total mesorectal excision could achieve better results. This contrasts with prevailing argument voiced many opinion leaders possibly can only be improved adjuvant or neoadjuvant...

To assess if cancers diagnosed during pregnancy or lactation are associated with increased risk of cause-specific death.In this population-based cohort study using data from the Cancer Registry and Medical Birth Norway, 42,511 women, age 16 to 49 years cancer 1967 2002, were eligible. They grouped as not pregnant (reference), pregnant, lactating at diagnosis. Cause-specific survival for all sites combined, most frequent malignancies, was investigated a Cox proportional hazards model. An...

BACKGROUND The overall age‐standardized cancer incidence rate continues to decline whereas the number of cases diagnosed each year increases. Predicting can help anticipate future resource needs, evaluate primary prevention strategies, and inform research. METHODS Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results data were used estimate cancers (all sites) resulting from changes in population risk, age, size. authors projected 2020 nationwide rates (including top 23 cancers). RESULTS Since 1975,...

Heart disease and cancer are the first second leading causes of death in United States. Age-standardized rates (risk) have declined since 1960s for heart 1990s, whereas overall number deaths increased. We analyzed mortality data to evaluate project effect risk reduction, population growth, aging on year 2020.We used data, estimates, projections estimate predict from 1969 through 2020 apportion changes resulting risk, aging.We predicted that 2020, would decrease 21.3% among men (-73.9% 17.9%...

Abstract Prediction of the future number cancer cases is great interest to society. The classical approach use age‐period‐cohort model for making incidence predictions. We made an empirical comparison different versions this model, using data from registries in Nordic countries period 1958–1997. have applied 15 methods 20 sites each sex Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. Median absolute value relative difference between observed predicted numbers these 160 combinations site, country was...

Despite fertility-preserving initiatives, postcancer reproduction is expected to be lower than that of the general population. Using data from Cancer Registry and Medical Birth Norway, pregnancy rates were analyzed in 27,556 survivors compared those a matched comparison group ("controls") All born after 1950, diagnosed 1967 2004 at age 16-45, had an observation time date diagnosis (assigned for controls), until pregnancy, death, 46, or December 31, 2006.

BACKGROUND The Norwegian Breast Cancer Screening Program started in 1996. To the authors' knowledge, this is first report using individual‐based data on invitation and participation to analyze breast cancer mortality among screened nonscreened women program. METHODS Information dates of invitation, attendance, diagnosis, emigration, death, cause death was linked by unique 11‐digit personal identification numbers assigned all inhabitants Norway at birth or immigration. In total, 699,628 ages...

Objectives As part of the International Cancer Benchmarking Partnership (ICBP) SURVMARK-2 project, we provide most recent estimates colon and rectal cancer survival in seven high-income countries by age stage at diagnosis. Methods Data from 386 870 patients diagnosed during 2010–2014 19 registries (Australia, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway UK) were analysed. 1-year 5-year net estimated diagnosis, country, Results (One1-year) varied between (77.1% 87.5%) 59.1% 70.9% (84.8%...

The severity of cancers is often measured in number deaths. However, years life lost (YLL) may be a more appropriate indicator impact on society. Here we have calculated the YLL adult Norway for year 2012, as well previous 15-year period. Data age composition, expected remaining life, total numbers deaths and due to cancer were retrieved from National Census Agency Statistics Norway. both sexes aged 25–99 based each individual's at death, that age. Cancer represented 25.8% all with lower...

<b>Background:</b> Very few population based results have been presented for survival after resection lung cancer. The purpose of this study was to present long term and quantify prognostic factors survival. <b>Methods:</b> All cancer patients diagnosed in Norway 1993–2002 were reported the Cancer Registry (n = 19 582).
