“…In females there was a preponderance of adenocarcinoma (50.3%), while in males squamous cell carcinoma predominated (45.4%). These results are similar to those reported by other groups [12,13] and can be attributed to the differences in smoking between sexes (the women in our study smoked less), as well as to molecular or hormonal factors [14].…”

Introduction and aims: To analyze the characteristics and long-term survival of patients diagnosed with lung cancer (LC), small cell and non small cell, in our hospital. Patients and methods:Retrospective study of patients with a cytohistological diagnosis of LC between 1999 and 2004. Survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The chi-squared test was used to assess possible associations between different variables.Results: In this time period, 996 cases were diagnosed, 85.6% in males and 14.4% in females. A total of 80.6% of the patients were smokers. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequent in males and adenocarcinoma in females; 20.4% of the tumours were at an early stage (I and II) at the time of diagnosis and only 16.8% were amenable to surgery. Overall survival was 7.9% at 5 years and the LC-specific survival was 14%. Survival was significantly worse in advanced stages and in patients that did not receive active treatment. Conclusions:Overall 5-year survival in our series was low, but similar to that described in other Spanish registries. This may be related to the low number of patients diagnosed in early stages and who could be treated surgically.

“…Overall 5-year survival rate for all stages of lung cancer, is 17% worldwide. [27] Our 5-year OS for all series was 15% and the only factor related to survival was stage. For Stage IV, a median increase of 2 months was seen through years with a better prognosis in the latest years.…”

“…[21,22] Our ratio of males to females with lung cancer is still high, [23][24][25] similar to other spainish rural areas. In any case, the male-to-female ratio is still substantially higher in Spain (8.5 in 2003) [26,27] than in other Western countries, where it varies between 1.3 and 4.5 likely due to the much more rare habit of smoking in women than in men. [2,4,28] It is known that over 95% of Spanish male lung cancer patients smoke.…”

The aim was to describe, in a prospective manner, the clinical, histopathological and epidemiological characteristics of lung cancer patients who attended as outpatients at the Lluís Alcanyís, Xàtiva Medical Oncology Hospital, València, Spain from January 2004 to July 2014. We also analyzed survival and compared our data with that reported in the literature. Methods: Clinical and demographic characteristics were analyzed for the entire series and trends were compared by year of diagnosis. Changes in epidemiology were examined and compared. Results: There were 701 patients (91.4% were men, mean age 67.6). Main histology was squamous cell carcinoma (41.5%). Squamous cell carcinoma prevailed in men (45.5%) and adenocarcinoma (ADC) in women (60.3%). The percentage of men with lung cancer and of patients with squamous cell carcinoma was higher than in the reported worldwide data and remained throughout the 10 years period. Mean survival was low, with < 10% survivors at 5 years. Stage of disease remained the main prognostic factor for survival. Conclusion: Squamous cell carcinoma continues to be the most frequent histological type in our area. Male and smoking is associated with lung carcinoma while ADC more often occurs in females. Over the time, our epidemiological and histological patterns have not changed, possibly in relation to maintenance of smoking habits.

“…In fact, the period during which there was increased control of CVD diseases and that led to important morbidity and mortality improvements after 1970 or so is reaching an exhaustion point. Simultaneously, Spain, like other middle and high income countries, is experiencing increased prevalence of obesity, Type II Diabetes (T2D) and related comorbidities, life style associated cancers (lung and stomach cancer) and neuro-degenerative diseases [17][18][19].…”

Background: There is mounting evidence for a recent increase of social disparities in chronicdisease prevalence and mortality. However, little is known about how these trends are reflected incombined measures of morbidity, disability and mortality.Method: We use two nationally representative surveys of the Spanish population for the years2008 to 2017 and standard measures of expected duration of disability and illness to assess timetrends and social disparities in mortality, morbidity and expected years lived in disability (DFLE)and with chronic illness (chrDFLE). We provide empirical evidence of shifting trends for thesemeasures. We then decompose these changes into contributions associated with disability, chronicillness and mortality. Finally, we estimate the size of education differentials in DFLE and chrDFLEand evaluate the magnitude and direction of changes of these differentials over time.Results: While the disability based indicator suggests a decrease of expected years withoutdisability for both men and women (expansion of morbidity), the morbidity based indicator showsan increase in time spend free of chronic disease for women but a slight decrease for men. Thedecrease in time spent without disability was observed for all education groups but is particularlymarked for those with low education.Conclusion: We find evidence of an expansion of morbidity in Spain between 2008 and 2017.The bulk of this development is related to increases in time spent with functional limitations overthis period. These patterns occur in conjuncture with growing social disparities in time spend withchronic illness or disability.
