TL;DR: For most cancers, 5-year net survival remains among the highest in the world in the USA and Canada, in Australia and New Zealand, and in Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, while for many cancers, Denmark is closing the survival gap with the other Nordic countries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer incidence and mortality patterns in South Eastern Europe in the last decade: Gaps persist compared with the rest of Europe

TL;DR: The lack of decline in overall cancer mortality in South Eastern Europe indicates suboptimal levels of cancer control in the region, and the North West to South East Europe gradient of increasing incidence and mortality rates of tobacco-related cancers is confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Childhood central nervous system tumours: Incidence and time trends in 13 Southern and Eastern European cancer registries.

TL;DR: The heterogeneity in registration practices and incidence patterns of CNS tumours necessitates further investigation aiming to provide clues in aetiology and direct investments into surveillance and early tumour detection in Southern-Eastern Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer surveillance in northern Africa, and central and western Asia: challenges and strategies in support of developing cancer registries.

TL;DR: An overview of the status of cancer surveillance and activities country-by-country, documenting tailored approaches that are informing local cancer-control policy, and potentially curbing the growing cancer burden across the region is provided.
