A descriptive epidemiologic study of malignant neoplasms among residents of Indian reserves in Manitoba from 1970 to 1979 based on the Manitoba Cancer Registry revealed an unusual pattern. There was a greater risk for kidney cancer in both sexes and for gallbladder and invasive cervical cancer in women. The risk was reduced, however, for cancer of the lung in men and of the breast in women, cancers with a high incidence in the general Canadian population. Overall the risk for cancer was lower in both sexes. The results are compared with those of other studies in Indians, and possible exposure to risk factors in this population is discussed.
基于曼尼托巴癌症登记处的数据,对1970年至1979年期间曼尼托巴省印第安保留地居民的恶性肿瘤进行的描述性流行病学研究揭示了一种不寻常的模式。男性和女性患肾癌的风险更高,女性患胆囊癌和浸润性宫颈癌的风险更高。然而,男性患肺癌和女性患乳腺癌的风险降低了,这两种癌症在加拿大普通人群中发病率较高。总体而言,男性和女性患癌症的风险都较低。将结果与其他针对印第安人的研究结果进行了比较,并讨论了该人群可能接触的风险因素。
