Trends in incidence and mortality of esophageal cancer in Inner Mongolia, 2010-2015.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Esophageal cancer is among the leading cancer types in Inner Mongolia. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and mortality rates of esophageal cancer in 2015 and the trends in these rates in the 2010-2015 period in this region. METHODS:National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable (NCCR) screening methods and criteria were used to extract data from 10 cancer registries stratified by area (urban/rural), sex, and age group. The Chinese standard population in 2000 and Segi's world population were used to calculate age-standardized rates. The annual percentage change (APC) in these rates was calculated using the Joinpoint Regression Program. RESULTS:In 2015, Inner Mongolia had 4324 new cases (4027 male vs. 297 female patients) and 3559 deaths (3300 male vs. 259 female patients) from esophageal cancer. The crude incidence, age-standardized incidence by Chinese population, age-standardized incidence by world population, and cumulative incidence were 13.45/100?000, 9.92/100?000, 10.18/100?000, and 1.30%, respectively. The corresponding figures for mortality were 11.32/100?000, 8.35/100?000, 8.53/100?000, and 1.04%. The incidence and mortality increased with age between 40 and 80?years. The rates in rural dwellers, especially men, showed negative APC (-13.25% vs. -11.08%; P?
