To measure AIDS registry completeness for Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and cancer registry completeness for KS and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), we linked AIDS and cancer registries at selected health departments.
We found 10,350 people with KS: 1,935 reported only to the AIDS registry, 1,428 reported only to the cancer registry, and 6,987 reported to both. Ninety-three cases of non-HIV-associated KS were expected. For KS, AIDS registry completeness was 84% [6,987/(6,987 + 1,428 - 93)] and cancer registry completeness was 78% [6,987/(6,987 + 1,935)]. Cancer registry completeness for AIDS-related NHL was 76%.
If this linking were conducted nationally, about 5,700 additional cases of AIDS and 10,000 additional cases of AIDS-related cancers would be recorded.
为了衡量卡波西肉瘤（KS）的艾滋病登记完整性以及KS和非霍奇金淋巴瘤（NHL）的癌症登记完整性，我们将选定卫生部门的艾滋病和癌症登记信息进行了关联。
我们发现10350例KS患者：1935例仅向艾滋病登记处报告，1428例仅向癌症登记处报告，6987例同时向两者报告。预计有93例非HIV相关的KS病例。对于KS，艾滋病登记完整性为84%[6987/(6987 + 1428 - 93)]，癌症登记完整性为78%[6987/(6987 + 1935)]。艾滋病相关NHL的癌症登记完整性为76%。
如果在全国范围内进行这种关联，将额外记录约5700例艾滋病病例和10000例艾滋病相关癌症病例。
