To study the incidence rate of lung cancer and its time trend in Basrah during 2005-2012.
This was a cancer registry-based retrospective study including all Basrah inhabitant patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer during the period from January 2005 to December 2012. The crude incidence rate was calculated in addition to the age standardized incidence rate (ASIR)/100,000 using the world standard population. Results: Out of 746 registered cases of lung cancer in Basrah, 75.9% were males and 24.1% were females with a male: female gender ratio of 3.1:1. The crude incidence rate was 3.93/100,000 (5.89/100,000 for males and 1.93/100,000 for females). The ASIR was 8.25/100,000 (13.30/100,000 for males and 4.08/100,000 for females). The time trend showed a decrease in incidence rate in the last 2 years (2011 and 2012) compared with the preceding years.
The incidence rate of lung cancer in Basrah did not differ greatly from that reported for some Arab and neighboring countries. No definite time trend could be identified apart from a tendency for the incidence rate to decline in 2011 and 2012.
研究2005 - 2012年巴士拉地区肺癌的发病率及其时间趋势。
这是一项基于癌症登记处的回顾性研究,纳入了2005年1月至2012年12月期间巴士拉所有被诊断为原发性肺癌的居民患者。除了使用世界标准人口计算年龄标准化发病率(ASIR)/10万外,还计算了粗发病率。结果:在巴士拉登记的746例肺癌病例中,75.9%为男性,24.1%为女性,男女比例为3.1:1。粗发病率为3.93/10万(男性为5.89/10万,女性为1.93/10万)。年龄标准化发病率为8.25/10万(男性为13.30/10万,女性为4.08/10万)。时间趋势显示,与前几年相比,在最后两年(2011年和2012年)发病率有所下降。
巴士拉地区肺癌的发病率与一些阿拉伯和邻国报告的发病率没有太大差异。除了2011年和2012年发病率有下降趋势外,未发现明确的时间趋势。
