“…The microscopic structure of erionite presents individual fibres in the range of 0.5–2 μm in diameter and 50–100 μm in length. The chemical composition of erionite in Tierra Blanca presents Si/Al ratios in the range of 3.2–3.4 (atomic %) and Si/(Si+Al) ratios between 0.76 and 0.78 (atomic %); ranges quite similar to those reported for Cappadocia in Turkey and North Dakota in the USA 8 9…”

“…54,55 Higher lung cancer mortality rates were observed in the northern region with women experiencing higher mortality in the central states of Mexico, 56,57 although trends are predicted to increase in the southern and poorer regions of the country. 58 The decreasing mortality rates in the central regions surrounding Mexico City suggest that access to early detection programs, state of the art treatment and specialized medical services increases survival of cancer patients.…”

Objective. To analyze mortality and incidence for 28 cancers by deprivation status, age and sex from 1990 to 2013. Materials and methods. The data and methodological approaches provided by the Global Burden of Disease (GBD 2013) were used. Results. Trends from 1990 to 2013 show important changes in cancer epidemiology in Mexico. While some cancers show a decreasing trend in incidence and mortality (lung, cervical) others emerge as relevant health priorities (prostate, breast, stomach, colorectal and liver cancer). Age standardized incidence and mortality rates for all cancers are higher in the northern states while the central states show a decreasing trend in the mortality rate. The analysis show that infection related cancers like cervical or liver cancer play a bigger role in more deprived states and that cancers with risk factors related to lifestyle like colorectal cancer are more common in less marginalized states. Conclusions. The burden of cancer in Mexico shows complex regional patterns by age, sex, types of cancer and deprivation status. Creation of a national cancer registry is crucial.Keywords: cancer; burden of disease; mortality; incidence; social condition; cause of death; epidemiology ResumenObjetivo. Analizar la incidencia y la mortalidad de 28 tipos de cáncer por nivel de marginación, grupos de edad y sexo, de 1990 a 2013. Material y métodos. Los datos utilizados provienen del estudio de la Carga Global de Enfermedades (2013). Las entidades federativas se clasificaron de acuerdo con el índice de marginación del Consejo Nacional de Población. Resultados. Los datos muestran una tendencia decreciente para algunos cánceres (pulmón y cervical), mientras otros aparecen como prioritarios y relevantes (próstata, mama, estómago, colon e hígado). En el norte se observan incrementos regionales mayores en las tasas de incidencia y mortalidad estandarizadas por edad, mientras que en los estados del centro se observa una tendencia decreciente de la tasa de mortalidad. Conclusiones. La epidemiología del cáncer en México (en su mayoría basada en datos de mortalidad) presentan patrones regionales complejos por edad, sexo, tipo de cáncer e índice de marginación. Es vital la creación de un registro nacional para mejorar el seguimiento y evaluación de intervenciones preventivas y curativas.

“…Mean annual cancer-related mortality in Mexico from 1998-2004 was 397 400 deaths; 45 578 of those deaths were due to lung cancer [2,3]. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for around 85% of all lung cancers and consists of several subtypes: adenocarcinoma (ADC) (85-90%), squamous-cell lung cancer (15-20%) and large-cell lung cancer (1-5%).…”

Relevance of the novel IASLC/ATS/ERS classification of lung adenocarcinoma in advanced disease

et al. 2014

Since the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), American Thoracic Society (ATS) and European Respiratory Society (ERS) reported a new lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) classification, several groups have validated its association with prognosis in early stage disease. To our knowledge, there are no studies in advanced disease.We reviewed 313 patients with invasive lung ADC who were re-classified using the new IASLC/ATS/ERS criteria. Patients received platinum-based chemotherapy. Clinical characteristics, EGFR mutations, response and progression-free survival (PFS) after chemotherapy and overall survival were analysed.ADCs were classified as lepidic 7.4%, acinar 44.7%, papillary 10.1%, micropapillary 3.5% and solid 34.2%. When patterns were lumped into groups, response rates and PFS to platinum-based chemotherapy were better in high-grade ADC (micropapillary, papillary and solid-predominant) versus intermediate-grade ADC (lepidic and acinar-predominant) (36.9% versus 25.4% p50.034 and 6.4 versus 5.5 months p50.009, respectively). Overall survival was better in high-grade ADC (25 versus 16.8; p50.023). Factors associated with better overall survival were Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (0-1), EGFR mutations and highgrade ADC.Prognostic differences found with the new classification in early disease may not apply to patients with advanced disease. Unlike in early stages, patients with high-grade ADC have longer overall survival compared with intermediate-grade ADC, probably due to a better response to chemotherapy. @ERSpublications Impact of the novel classification of lung adenocarcinoma in advanced disease
