Incidence and mortality trend of cervical cancer in 11 cancer registries of China

Abstract: Objective: In many countries, the cervical cancer prevalence has declined but less information about the changes is available in China. This study aims to understand the epidemiological characteristics and trend of cervical cancer in China.Methods: Cervical cancer data of 11 cancer registries during 1988-2002 in China were analyzed. The age and urban/rural differences and trend of cervical cancer incidence and mortality were described and discussed.Results: During 1988-2002, a total of 6007 incidence cases and… Show more

“…Approximately 50% of all CC cases in the world were recorded in China and India (26). Nearly 181,500 people are diagnosed with CC each year in China, while >30,000 women succumbed to CC (27). In Europe, ~38,000 CC cases are diagnosed each year, and >2/3 of those would be expected to be cured and survive (28).…”

“…As China’s cancer burden continues to grow, more attention has been directed toward effective prevention programs [33]. Overall cervical cancer mortality has been declining, but the declining trends showed only for older women; younger women showed an increasing trend [1]. Given the large population and limited resources in most areas of China, identifying the most at-risk populations and designing targeted prevention interventions are most efficient.…”

“…More than 80% of cervical cancer occurs in women in developing countries. As the most populous country, China has observed an increase in the cervical cancer incidence rate in younger females (25–44 years of age) within a context of a growing cancer burden [1,2]. For instance, the incidence rate of cervical cancer was 0.21 per 100,000 among women aged 20 to 24 from 1988 to 1992, but jumped to 1.35 per 100,000 from 1998 to 2002.…”
