Cancer incidence rate is increasing in the world particularly in developing countries. The awareness regarding cancer incidence and distribution helps policy makers and researchers to design comprehensive plan for controlling cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence rate and trend of cancer in Isfahan area, one of the most importance provinces of Iran.
Data of Isfahan cancer registry were derived from 2005 to 2010. Direct standardization through world standard population produced by the world health organization was used and adjusted standard rate (ASR) was calculated. The Poisson regression analysis was employed to estimate cancer incidence trend during 5 years.
The new cases of cancer were 24771 patients from 2005 to 2010. Mean age of these patients was 56.1 ± 18.0 years and 54.6% were male. Male patients were approximately 7 years older than females. The most frequent cancer was gastrointestinal in men and breast cancer in women. The rate of cancer increased approximately 4 per 1000 population and incidence rate ratio (IRR) was 1.004 (95%CI: 1.002-1.005).
The rate of cancer is increasing rapidly in Isfahan province. Cancer control and comprehensive prevention plan for Isfahan is necessary.
全球癌症发病率呈上升趋势,尤其是在发展中国家。了解癌症的发病率和分布情况有助于政策制定者和研究人员制定全面的癌症控制计划。本研究旨在确定伊朗最重要的省份之一伊斯法罕地区的癌症发病率及趋势。
伊斯法罕癌症登记处的数据来源于2005年至2010年。采用世界卫生组织制定的世界标准人口进行直接标准化,并计算调整后的标准率(ASR)。采用泊松回归分析来估计5年间的癌症发病率趋势。
2005年至2010年共有24771例癌症新发病例。这些患者的平均年龄为56.1±18.0岁,男性占54.6%。男性患者的年龄比女性大约大7岁。男性中最常见的癌症是胃肠道癌,女性中是乳腺癌。癌症发病率每1000人口中增加约4例,发病率比(IRR)为1.004(95%CI:1.002 - 1.005)。
伊斯法罕省的癌症发病率正在迅速上升。有必要为伊斯法罕制定癌症控制和全面预防计划。
