Journal ArticleDOI
Rising incidence of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and gastric cardia.
TL;DR: Cancer incidence data from nine areas of the United States revealed steadily rising rates from 1976 to 1987 of adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastric cardia, which disproportionately affected white men and rarely occurred among women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changing patterns in the incidence of esophageal and gastric carcinoma in the United States
TL;DR: The authors update the incidence trends through 1994 and further consider the trends by age group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer burden in the year 2000. The global picture.
TL;DR: Three elementary measures of cancer frequency are confined ourselves to: incidence, mortality and prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rising incidence of renal cell cancer in the United States
TL;DR: Increasing detection of presymptomatic tumors by imaging procedures, such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, does not fully explain the upward incidence trends of renal cell carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
