“…However, the 9.35% increase in mortality from this type of cancer in the Midwest region in 2022 draws attention. A study that analyzed mortality from TBL neoplasms in the Midwest states from 2000 to 2015 found an increasing trend in only two of its four states for the female population, which presented an average annual percentage change (APC) of approximately 1.6%, and in only one state for the male population, with an APC of 0.6% [37]. Therefore, the result of the present study is atypical and deserves more careful investigation.…”

Objectives To analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mortality from all types and the five most common types of cancer in Brazil and investigate the relationship between the density of hospital beds and mortality from COVID-19 in cancer patients in Brazil’s Intermediate Geographic Regions (RGIs). Methods The Brazilian Mortality Information System provided data on the deaths from trachea, bronchus, and lung, colorectal, stomach, female breast, and prostate cancer and all types of cancer, and from COVID-19 in individuals who had cancer as a contributing cause of death. Death rates from the pandemic years (2020–2022) were compared to pre-pandemic ones. An association analysis, through multivariate linear regression, was carried out between mortality from COVID-19 in cancer patients, the rate of hospital beds per 100,000 inhabitants, and the Human Development Index of the 133 RGIs of Brazil. Results: In 2022, mortality from all cancers was higher than in 2019 (3.0%), as well as the mortality from colorectal (8.5%), female breast (5.2%), and prostate cancer (2.2%). Mortality from COVID-19 in cancer patients, which reached its peak in 2021 (6.0/100,000), was negatively associated with the density of hospital beds in the public health system. Conclusions: This study suggests an increase in mortality from cancer, especially the treatable ones, in 2022 as an impact of the COVID-19 pandemic due to the burden that the new disease imposed on health services. Also, the findings suggest a protective role of the availability of hospital care concerning deaths due to COVID-19 in cancer patients.

“…It has been determined that studies focusing on GBD generally make comparisons using SDI groups (Deng et al, 2021;Wong et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2020). Studies focusing on temporal trends in TBL cancer indicators have addressed this issue; globally (Zhou et al, 2022), USA (Zhong et al, 2019), USA and Europe (Jani et al, 2021b), China (Ni et al, 2020), China and USA (Deng et al, 2021), Brazil (Fernandes et al, 2020), Belgium (Vanthomme et al, 2021) and, Iran (Almasi et et al, 2020), it was observed that the focus was on incidence and mortality.…”

Trachea, bronchial, and lung (TBL) cancers are significant public health problems among the leading causes of death in Turkey and the world. In this study, it was aimed to determine and evaluate the temporal trends of incidence, mortality, and DALY rates of TBA cancers between 1990 and 2019. Mortality-Incidence Ratio (MIR) and Joinpoint Regression Analysis (JRA) methods were used in this study. Incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years were used as variables in the study. The temporal trends of TBL cancers were compared between the global, Turkey, and Socio-Demographic Index (SDI) groups. In this study, it was determined that the age-standardized global burden of TBL cancers tended to decrease between 1990 and 2019. While the burden of TBL cancers tended to decline in high SDI countries during this period, it tended to increase in low SDI countries. In Turkey, while the TBL cancers burden decreased until 2005, it increased after 2006. While the global cancer burden of TBL tended to decline in men, it tended to increase in women during this period. According to the data obtained from the research findings, the burden of TBL cancers tends to decrease globally. However, it tends to increase in low and low-middle SDI group countries. To reduce the TBL global cancer burden, it is recommended that health policies should be developed in both Turkey and international health systems for fair access to cancer treatment.
