TL;DR: In this article, the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in oropharyngeal cancer was determined for all 271 oropharygeal cancers (1984-2004) collected by the three population-based cancer registries in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Residual Tissue Repositories Program.

TL;DR: OPC incidence significantly increased during 1983 to 2002 predominantly in developed countries and at younger ages, underscore a potential role for HPV infection on increasing OPC incidence, particularly among men.

TL;DR: Age-specific CRC risk has escalated back to the level of those born circa 1890 for contemporary birth cohorts, underscoring the need for increased awareness among clinicians and the general public, as well as etiologic research to elucidate causes for the trend.

TL;DR: The findings not only demonstrate that the risk of AIDS is related directly to age but also suggest that older adults are disproportionately affected during the earlier phases of HIV disease, that adolescents may have a low replication rate of HIV, and that children and adolescents may tolerate severe immunodeficiency better because they have fewer other infections or because of some unmeasured, age-dependent cofactor or immune alteration in the later phase of HIV Disease.

TL;DR: Relative risks of cancer compared to the general population and cause-specific hazards of the first major adverse outcomes of FA: bone marrow transplantation for marrow complications, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), solid tumors, or death from bone marrow failure are calculated.
