A pilot study comparing mesothelioma registries and population-based cancer registries of two Italian regions, Sicilia and Toscana, shows a good agreement on total number of registered incident cases. However, and in spite of the use of the same clinical sources of data, discrepancies were detected because of different criteria applied in collecting and classifying the relevant information on diagnoses. The development of common guidelines on the definition of mesothelioma case is a challenge for the Italian National Mesothelioma Registry (RENAM) and for the Italian Association of Cancer Registries (AIRTUM). The calendar period covered by the study was 1998- 2005 for Sicily and 1988-2005 for Tuscan.

一项比较意大利西西里岛和托斯卡纳两个地区间间皮瘤登记处与基于人群的癌症登记处的试点研究表明,在登记的新发病例总数上两者具有良好的一致性。然而,尽管使用了相同的临床数据来源,但由于在收集和分类有关诊断的相关信息时应用了不同标准,仍发现了差异。制定间皮瘤病例定义的通用指南对意大利国家间皮瘤登记处(RENAM)和意大利癌症登记协会(AIRTUM)来说是一项挑战。该研究涵盖的日历时间段,西西里岛为1998 - 2005年,托斯卡纳为1988 - 2005年。
