“…Age-specific rates for the combined eight districts of Inhambane Province are presented in Table II. Similar age-specific rates for other centres in Africa have been calculated from data given in the first two volumes of "Cancer Incidence in five Continents" (Doll et al, 1966(Doll et al, , 1970 to give values for the same age groups as have been used in the Inhambane survey and these are plotted in Figure 3 in comparison with the Inhambane figures. The places for which rates are given are shown in Figure 1.…”

“…In addition, we include breast cancer mortality data from Egypt from 2000 to 2011. All rates are per 100,000 females and were standardized using the direct method and the 1960 World standard population to compare data across countries and over time (13). Our analysis was limited to invasive female breast cancers defined by ICD-10/ICD-O-3 site code C50.…”

Background: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death among women worldwide. Herein, we examine global trends in female breast cancer rates using the most up-to-date data available.Methods: Breast cancer incidence and mortality estimates were obtained from GLOBOCAN 2012 (globocan.iarc.fr). We analyzed trends from 1993 onward using incidence data from 39 countries from the International Agency for Research on Cancer and mortality data from 57 countries from the World Health Organization.Results: Of 32 countries with incidence and mortality data, rates in the recent period diverged-with incidence increasing and mortality decreasing-in nine countries mainly in Northern/ Western Europe. Both incidence and mortality decreased in France, Israel, Italy, Norway, and Spain. In contrast, incidence and death rates both increased in Colombia, Ecuador, and Japan.

“…The rates were then adjusted for age using a direct method based on world population. 8 After adjusting for all age groups, expected deaths of those under 20 years and of those 80 years and more were excluded to obtain adjusted rates for the age group 20-79 years old.…”

OBJECTIVE:To develop a methodology for correction of reported cervical cancer deaths in Brazil.METHODS: Data on 9,607,177 cancer deaths were obtained from the Brazilian National Mortality Database for the period between 1996 and 2005. For correction of underreporting of deaths, factors generated by the Global Burden of Disease Study in Brazil-1998 were used. Proportional distribution was used in order to correct the categories of unknown, incomplete or ill-defi ned death diagnosis. The corrections were applied to each Brazilian state and the results were presented for Brazil nationwide, macroregions, and geographical areas (capital, other cities of metropolitan areas and interior cities) as percent variability of cervical mortality rates before and after correction. Corrections were analyzed by multivariate linear regression with interaction terms between macroregion and geographical area. RESULTS:After correction, cervical cancer mortality rates showed an increment of 103% nationwide, ranging between 35% (Southern region capitals) and 339% (Northeastern region interior cities). The reallocation of cervical cancer deaths not otherwise specifi ed resulted in greater mortality rate increments. The percent correction by year of death revealed steady trends nationwide. CONCLUSIONS:The study results showed that the proposed methodology was appropriate for the correction of cervical cancer mortality rates in Brazil. It evidenced that cervical cancer mortality is even higher than that reported.
