The incidence of invasive cervical cancer by age and marital status was examined, using census statistics and 1968--71 cancer registry data from women who lived in the Manchester Regional Hospital Board area. The relative rarity of the disease in the unmarried and its higher incidence in formerly married than in currently married women was confirmed. This higher incidence was shown to be mainly in widows under 50 and divorced women, suggesting that it is related to the association of the disease with number of sexual partners.
利用人口普查统计数据以及1968年至1971年居住在曼彻斯特地区医院委员会辖区内女性的癌症登记数据,对浸润性宫颈癌的发病率按年龄和婚姻状况进行了调查。证实了该疾病在未婚女性中相对罕见,而在曾婚女性中的发病率高于当前已婚女性。结果表明,这种较高的发病率主要集中在50岁以下的寡妇和离婚女性中,这表明该疾病与性伴侣数量有关。
