Trends in incidence and mortality of esophageal cancer in Inner Mongolia, 2010–2015

Abstract: Background Esophageal cancer is among the leading cancer types in Inner Mongolia. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and mortality rates of esophageal cancer in 2015 and the trends in these rates in the 2010–2015 period in this region. Methods National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable (NCCR) screening methods and criteria were used to extract data from 10 cancer registries stratified by area (urban/rural), sex, and age group. The Chinese standard population in 2000 and Segi's world population were used … Show more

“…This implied that the disease burden of EC in Henan was still high and effective prevention and control strategies required extended effective implementation. Meanwhile, the male predominance observed in incidence and mortality was also in line with that in China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other regions ( 10 , 16 , 17 ), which indicated these regions may have similarly distributed risk factors. Regarding male predominance, alcohol use and tobacco smoking/exposure were clearly established risk factors for EC development ( 2 ).…”

“…Several studies were conducted over a large time span, some more than 60 years ago; however, they were conducted at a national level ( 3 , 8 ). Furthermore, some published research estimates of mortality rates only focus on specific types of cancer in Inner Mongolia; moreover, other reported estimates of mortality only use data from a single year or even a shorter time ( 9 11 ).…”

“…It has become one of the common causes of cancer-related death in China (3). EC mainly occurs in middle-aged and elderly individuals, and because of the aging population, the incidence in older adults will continue to rise (4). EC has no obvious symptoms in the early stages, and most patients are already in the middle or late stages when their disease is diagnosed.…”
