Il grafico, basato sui dati AIRTUM 1992- 2007,mostra l’andamento dell’incidenza di tumore del polmone nei giovani adulti di età 20-49 anni in entrambi i sessi. I
In 2014 cancer registration covers more than half of the Italian population [Nel 2014 la registrazione dei tumori in Italia è estesa a oltre la metà del Paese]
After the increasing trend in the Nineties, in Italy incidence of tumours in children (0-14 years) is decreasing [Dopo l'aumento registrato negli anni Novanta, in Italia l'incidenza dei tumori infantili (0-14 anni) è in diminuzione]

Global surveillance of cancer survival 1995–2009: analysis of individual data for 25 676 887 patients from 279 population-based registries in 67 countries (CONCORD-2)
Worldwide data for cancer survival are scarce. We aimed to initiate worldwide surveillance of cancer survival by central analysis of population-based registry data, as a metric of the eff ectiveness of health systems, and to inform global policy on cancer control. Methods Individual tumour records were submitted by 279 population-based cancer registries in 67 countries for 25·7 million adults (age 15–99 years) and 75 000 children (age 0–14 years) diagnosed with cancer during 1995–2009 and followed up to Dec 31, 2009, or later. We looked at cancers of the stomach, colon, rectum, liver, lung, breast (women), cervix, ovary, and prostate in adults, and adult and childhood leukaemia. Standardise…
In the last 15 years, survival in Italian children (0-14 years) is increased to 12%. [Negli ultimi 15 anni la sopravvivenza per tumore nei bambini italiani di età 0-14 anni è aumentata del 12%]
Cancer incidence and mortality trends from 2003 to 2014 in Italy.
Objective: To evaluate short-term (2003–2014) cancer incidence and mortality trends in Italy. Methods: Italian Cancer Registries data, available in the AIRTUM database, from 17 out of 20 regions were used. The number of incident cases and deaths were estimated for those registries and those years with incomplete information. Age-standardized rates, overall and stratified by geographic area, region, sex, cancer site, and major age group, were computed. Time trends were expressed as annual percent change of rates. Results: In Italy, among males, incidence rates for all cancers showed during 2003–2014, a significant decrease (−0.9%/year), with stronger reductions in the northwest (−1.3%/year) …
