We report the first results of a comparison between the Italian Registry on AIDS (RAIDS) and 13 population-based cancer registries (about 8 million population in 1991) with respect to the notification of Kaposi's sarcoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Routine indicators of data quality and completeness have been found in both types of registry, consistent with the best international standards. A linkage process was carried out on about 339,000 cancer notifications and 3,134 AIDS notifications and was herein restricted to individuals under the age of 50. Out of 243 Kaposi's sarcomas at either type of registry, 90 (37%) were reported as such by both; 68% of individuals with Kaposi's sarcoma at cancer registries could be identified at the AIDS registry, including AIDS-defining illnesses other than Kaposi's sarcoma; 62% of individuals with Kaposi's sarcoma at RAIDS could be found at cancer registries. Of 2,104 non-Hodgkin's lymphomas at either type of registry, 55 were reported as such by both; 65% of individuals reported as having non-Hodgkin's lymphoma at the AIDS registry were found at cancer registries. Our present results indicate the scope for improving cancer assessment in individuals with HIV infection and AIDS and the potential of AIDS and cancer registries for such a purpose.
我们报告了意大利艾滋病登记处（RAIDS）与13个基于人群的癌症登记处（1991年约800万人口）在卡波西肉瘤和非霍奇金淋巴瘤通报方面比较的初步结果。在这两种登记处中均发现了符合最佳国际标准的数据质量和完整性常规指标。对约33.9万份癌症通报和3134份艾滋病通报进行了关联处理，且在此仅限于50岁以下的个体。在两种登记处的243例卡波西肉瘤中，90例（37%）在两者中均被如此报告；癌症登记处中68%患有卡波西肉瘤的个体在艾滋病登记处可被识别，包括除卡波西肉瘤之外的艾滋病定义疾病；RAIDS中62%患有卡波西肉瘤的个体在癌症登记处可被找到。在两种登记处的2104例非霍奇金淋巴瘤中，55例在两者中均被如此报告；艾滋病登记处报告患有非霍奇金淋巴瘤的个体中65%在癌症登记处被找到。我们目前的结果表明了改善对艾滋病毒感染和艾滋病患者癌症评估的范围，以及艾滋病和癌症登记处在这方面的潜力。
