UNLABELLED
A mini-symposium was held in Montreal, Canada, at the International Surgical Week for the Breast Surgical International in 2007 addressing the question whether breast cancer is the same disease in Asian and Western countries. Numerous investigators from Asian and Western countries presented the epidemiologic and clinical outcome data of women with breast cancer. Although there are significant similarities, the striking difference is that the peak age for breast cancer is between 40 and 50 years in the Asian countries, whereas the peak age in the Western countries is between 60 and 70 years. Also, the incidence of breast cancer in Asia is rising and is associated with increased mortality. In the West, although the incidence is increasing, the mortality rate is definitely decreasing. Future prospective data collection from Asian and Western countries may provide further interesting epidemiologic and outcome data regarding the outcome of women with breast cancer from Asian and Western countries.
BACKGROUND
Whether breast cancer is the same disease in Asian and Western countries was the topic of a 2007 Breast Surgery International symposium at International Surgical Week.
METHODS
Participating investigators from China, Taiwan, India, Japan, South Korea, Sweden, Canada, and the United States were asked beforehand to provide data on the epidemiology and treatment outcome of women in their countries.
RESULTS
Comparisons of the epidemiologic and clinical outcome data of women with breast cancer showed significant similarities, but the striking difference is that the peak age is between 40 and 50 years in Asian countries, but is between 60 and 70 years in Western countries. The incidence of breast cancer in Asia is rising and is associated with increased mortality. In the West, although the incidence is also increasing, the mortality rate is definitely decreasing.
DISCUSSION
Future prospective data collection from Asian and Western countries may provide further interesting epidemiologic and outcome data regarding the outcome of women with breast cancer from Asian and Western countries.
未加标签
2007 年在加拿大蒙特利尔举行的国际外科周乳腺外科国际会议上举办了一次小型研讨会，探讨亚洲和西方国家的乳腺癌是否为同一疾病。来自亚洲和西方国家的许多研究人员介绍了亚洲和西方国家女性乳腺癌的流行病学和临床结果数据。尽管有许多相似之处，但一个显著的差异是，亚洲国家乳腺癌的发病高峰年龄在 40 岁至 50 岁之间，而西方国家的发病高峰年龄在 60 岁至 70 岁之间。此外，亚洲乳腺癌的发病率正在上升，且与死亡率增加相关。在西方，尽管发病率在上升，但死亡率肯定在下降。来自亚洲和西方国家的未来前瞻性数据收集可能会提供有关亚洲和西方国家女性乳腺癌结局的进一步有趣的流行病学和结果数据。
背景
亚洲和西方国家的乳腺癌是否为同一疾病是 2007 年国际外科周乳腺外科国际会议的一个主题。
方法
要求来自中国、中国台湾、印度、日本、韩国、瑞典、加拿大和美国的参与研究人员事先提供其国家女性的流行病学和治疗结果数据。
结果
对女性乳腺癌的流行病学和临床结果数据的比较显示出显著的相似性，但一个显著的差异是亚洲国家的发病高峰年龄在 40 岁至 50 岁之间，而西方国家的发病高峰年龄在 60 岁至 70 岁之间。亚洲乳腺癌的发病率正在上升，且与死亡率增加相关。在西方，尽管发病率也在上升，但死亡率肯定在下降。
讨论
来自亚洲和西方国家的未来前瞻性数据收集可能会提供有关亚洲和西方国家女性乳腺癌结局的进一步有趣的流行病学和结果数据。
