TL;DR: The results showed that Iran is a medium-risk area for incidence of cancers, and differences in the most common cancers in Iran comparing to those reported for the World.
99 citations
TL;DR: With the combined efforts of biological knowledge and modern technology, the cure for pancreatic cancer could be at hand.
77 citations
TL;DR: This analysis represents the first modern population-based analysis of meningioma incidence and mortality and outcomes of patients with such neoplasms in Germany and may fill a hitherto existing gap in the literature in Germany.
76 citations
TL;DR: A number of circulating miRNAs are found to be common in the body fluids of OSCC patients, while many of these are study specific, the possible sources of this variability could be due to differences in sample processing, assay procedure, clinical stage of the disease, oral habit and environmental factors.
73 citations
TL;DR: The variations in the incidence-rate of cancer of unknown primary over time and between countries reflect changes in the risk factors for CUP, incidence trends of the primary tumors that potentially contribute to the burden of CUP and change in the diagnostic technologies and practice.
61 citations
TL;DR: Women from more deprived areas where less likely to attend breast cancer screening and future screening strategies should consider developing strategies to account for this.
49 citations
TL;DR: Both the incidence and mortality in men substantially increase with age and period, while the rates in women increased with period since 2007, and the period effect may indicate the increased risks to bladder cancer in Chinese men.
48 citations
TL;DR: Incidence rates of STS and BS have been stable since 2001, and the longer RS in STS can be attributed to advances in sarcoma patient management.
41 citations
TL;DR: These cancer incidence projections up to 2042 can be used for planning cancer control strategies and prevention programs and should be interpreted with caution given the ongoing changes in the prevalence of risk factors and in cancer prevention policies.
39 citations
TL;DR: From the results NA-NSAIDs use appears to be CRC chemopreventive for a specific subgroup of the population, especially in people aged 40 years or older.
38 citations
TL;DR: The incidence of STS is increasing in Australia, most noticeably in those aged over 70 years, with a small but statistically significant increase in overall survival rates.
TL;DR: Results support the original hypothesis that use of PPIs may be a risk factor for gastric and oesophageal cancer in the general population of maintenance users, independent of underlying indications.
TL;DR: The study highlights increasing incidence of colon cancer in younger subjects and a decrease in incidence rates for rectal cancer in females.
TL;DR: The proportion of cancer cases and deaths that could be potentially avoided by eliminating or reducing lifestyle risk factors in Brazil may be useful to inform strategies for cancer prevention and control across Brazil.
TL;DR: Prevalence of H. pylori infection in LAC is high for all age groups and the necessity of actions towards the prevention and treatment is reinforced, to reduce gastric cancer incidence in the future.
TL;DR: The number of cancer cases in urban Shanghai, especially in older people, is expected to significantly increase in the next decade, and particular strategies targeting the elderly are required to combat the cancers.
TL;DR: The findings imply an increasing risk of CRC in both Western and Asian populations as their younger cohorts reach older ages, consistent with the life course argument that macro-environmental changes associated with socio-economic development have specific effects that extend over the life Course.
TL;DR: Travel distance to cancer diagnostic health care services was associated with interval length in the diagnostic pathway, and this association was less pronounced in the period after introducing CPPs and also strongly depending of the underlying cancer type and symptomatology.
TL;DR: Prognosis was significantly better in patients with HPV-driven cancers, with smoking negatively impacting patients' oncological outcomes, and more research concerning the evolution of HPV- driven cancers over time is needed.
TL;DR: Colorectal cancer patients with T2DM treated with metformin as part of their diabetic therapy appear to have a superior OS and CS, however, prospective controlled studies are still needed to evaluate the efficacy of met formin as an anti-tumor agent.
TL;DR: The PMSI database is a reliable and effective source for studying the epidemiology of surgically treated meningiomas, including the precise location of the tumour, and may assert the usefulness of such a database to investigate the patients' outcome afterMeningioma surgery.
TL;DR: Estimates obtained from a flexible parametric model are not oversensitive to the number of knots used to create the splines and the estimates remain non-sensitive, compared to other models, such as the Cox model.
TL;DR: Indoor tanning contributes to a considerable burden of skin cancer in Canada and strategies aimed at reducing use should be increased and a total ban or restrictions on use and UV-intensity should be considered by health regulators.
TL;DR: Cancer patients living in a socioeconomically vulnerable environment (lower educational status, poverty, and unemployment) seem to have higher suicide risk compared to other cancer patients.
TL;DR: The incidences of multiple SREs in BC- or PC-induced bone metastasis or MM in this 12-year South Korean cohort were slightly higher than those in European countries.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a plasma 3-miRNA panel may serve as a novel noninvasive biomarker to diagnose CRC and indicated that the dysregulated miRNAs in CRC were functionally involved in several key cancer-related pathways, including axonal guidance, PI3K, and calcium signaling pathways.
TL;DR: In most studies the specificity for recurrence with AFP and HCG was high but sensitivity was often relatively low, suggesting that many recurrences would not be detected by tumour markers alone, and the diagnostic performance of LDH appears poorer.
TL;DR: Among blacks, higher comorbidity associates with less chance of receiving guideline-based treatment and also modifies OS, and differences in receipt of guideline- based care do not completely explain survival differences between blacks and whites with ovarian cancer.
TL;DR: Real-world characteristics, treatment patterns, and overall survival of patients with mUC treated in the United States from 2011 to 2017 were assessed, indicating a continued unmet need for immunotherapy.
TL;DR: The consistent association with educational attainment suggestsLow health literacy may play a role in CUP diagnosis and the need to develop strategies to achieve earlier identification of diagnostically challenging malignancies in people with low health literacy is highlighted.
