<h3>Background:</h3> Regular cancer surveillance is crucial for understanding where progress being made and more must be done. We sought to provide an overview of the expected burden in Canada 2022. <h3>Methods:</h3> obtained data on new incidence from National Cancer Incidence Reporting System (1984–1991) Canadian Registry (1992–2018). Mortality (1984–2019) were Vital Statistics — Death Database. projected mortality counts rates 2022 22 types by sex province or territory. Rates age...
Greater understanding of international cancer survival differences is needed. We aimed to identify predictors and consequences diagnosis through emergency presentation in different jurisdictions six high-income countries.
<h3>Background:</h3> Cancer surveillance data are essential to help understand where gaps exist and progress is being made in cancer control. We sought summarize the expected impact of Canada 2024, with projections new cases deaths from by sex province or territory for all ages combined. <h3>Methods:</h3> obtained on (i.e., incidence, 1984–2019) mortality, 1984–2020) Canadian Registry Vital Statistics Death Database, respectively. projected incidence mortality counts rates 2024 23 types...
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%...
BackgroundLeukaemias comprise a heterogenous group of haematological malignancies. In CONCORD-3, we analysed data for children (aged 0–14 years) and adults 15–99 diagnosed with malignancy during 2000–14 in 61 countries. Here, aimed to examine worldwide trends survival from leukaemia, by age morphology, young patients 0–24 years).MethodsWe 258 population-based cancer registries countries participating CONCORD-3 that submitted on leukaemia. We grouped as (0–14 years), adolescents (15–19 (20–24...
Survival is a key metric of the effectiveness health system in managing cancer. We set out to provide comprehensive examination worldwide variation and trends survival from brain tumors adults, by histology.We analyzed individual data for adults (15-99 years) diagnosed with tumor (ICD-O-3 topography code C71) during 2000-2014, regardless behavior. Data underwent 3-phase quality control as part CONCORD-3. estimated net 11 histology groups, using unbiased nonparametric Pohar Perme...
Cancer survival estimates provide insights into the effectiveness of early detection and treatment. The stage cancer at diagnosis is an important determinant survival, reflecting extent spread time disease detection. This work provides stage-specific, five-year results not previously available for Canada.Data reflect population-based Canadian Registry death-linked analytic file covering period from 2010 to 2017. was determined by Collaborative Stage Data Collection System. Five-year net (NS)...
Objective To provide the first international comparison of oesophageal and gastric cancer survival by stage at diagnosis histological subtype across high-income countries with similar access to healthcare. Methods As part ICBP SURVMARK-2 project, data from 28 923 patients 25 946 diagnosed during 2012–2014 14 registries in seven (Australia, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway UK) were included. 1-year 3-year age-standardised net estimated diagnosis, (oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC)...
Abstract Introduction Tumors of the central nervous system are among leading causes cancer-related death in children. Population-based cancer survival reflects overall effectiveness a health care managing cancer. Inequity access to world-wide may result disparities. Methods We considered children (0–14 years) diagnosed with brain tumor during 2000–2014, regardless behavior. Data underwent rigorous, three-phase quality control as part CONCORD-3. implemented revised version International...
Measurement of care time intervals is complex, being influenced by many factors. The definition the interval monitored can also bias detection changes in waits. implications using different definitions to report wait times and identify delays provision were examined a retrospective chart review 637 women with surgically treated breast cancer who referred centre between September 1999 2000 or 2003 2004. Overall waits adjuvant treatment increased 12 days over two periods, but their exact...
Inequalities in health attributable to inequalities society have long been recognized. Typically, those most privileged experience better health, regardless of universal access care. Associations between social and material deprivation mortality from all causes death´ a measure population described for some regions Canada. This study further examines the link focusing on major both rural urban populations. In addition, it quantifies burden premature Canadian setting where care is accessible...
<b>Background:</b> Waiting times for cancer care continue to be an important issue Canadians. We evaluated 2 cohorts of breast patients compare changes in elapsed care, determine the proportion who received their postoperative oncology consultation within recommended time and examine between date surgery start first adjuvant therapy. <b>Methods:</b> conducted a retrospective chart review all women with surgically treated were referred provincial centre The cohort comprised Sept. 1, 1999,...
