Cancer survival in Europe 1999-2007 by country and age: results of EUROCARE--5-a population-based study
2013
Background: Cancer survival is a key measure of the effectiveness of health-care systems. EUROCARE-the largest cooperative study of population-based cancer survival in Europe-has shown persistent differences between countries for cancer survival, although in general, cancer survival is improving. Major changes in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation occurred in the early 2000s. EUROCARE-5 assesses their effect on cancer survival in 29 European countries. Methods: In this retrospective observational study, we analysed data from 107 cancer registries for more than 10 million patients with cancer diagnosed up to 2007 and followed up to 2008. Uniform quality control procedures were a…
Erratum to "The histology of ovarian cancer: Worldwide distribution and implications for international survival comparisons (CONCORD-2)" [Gynecol. On…
2017
Objective. Ovarian cancers comprise several histologically distinct tumour groups with widely different prognosis. We aimed to describe the worldwide distribution of ovarian cancer histology and to understand what role this may play in international variation in survival. Methods. The CONCORD programme is the largest population-based study of global trends in cancer survival. Data on 681,759 women diagnosed during 1995–2009 with cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, peritoneum and retroperitonum in 51 countries were included.We categorised ovarian tumours into six histological groups, and explored the worldwide distribution of histology. Results. During 2005–2009, type II epithelial tumours …
J14 Mediterranean Diet And Nutritional Composition Of Patients With Huntington's Disease. Spanish Multicenter Study Of The European Group For Hunting…
2014
Background The impact of a diet is well known in human health. Intake of food groups (fruits and ‘uts, vegetables, legumes, olive oil, whole grains, fish and wine) in the traditional Mediterranean Diet (MeDi) and high MeDi adherence have been associated with lower incidence of chronic diseases and slower cognitive decline, but the relationship between MeDi adherence and nutritional composition has not been reported. Objectives To describe MeDi and nutritional composition in patients with HD. Methods Spanish multicenter, cross-sectional study (EHDN). To assess MeDi we used a 3-days dietary record. Food groups, macro and micronutrients and energy intake information were obtained using the sof…
I06 Dysphagia In Huntington`s Disease: A Multicenter Study
2014
Background Dysphagia is a common complication of neurogenerative disorders, and a leading cause of death due to aspiration pneumonia. Little is known about the frequency and the characteristics of dysphagia in HD. Well-balanced strategies for treatment and prevention of dysphagia in HD are lacking. Objetives To determine the prevalence of dysphagia in HD. Methods National, multicenter, observational, cross-sectional Study (Spanish EHDN). Dysphagia was assessed using the questionnaire EAT-10 (eating assessment tool), caregiver burden using the SumaCare, functional capacity using the TFC score, disease severity using the Unified HD Rating Scale (UHDRS), psyquiatric status (PBA-s), nutritional…
J15 Validation Of 24 H Dietary Recalls To Assess Dietary Intake For Patients With Huntington's Disease. Spanish Multicenter Study Of The European Gro…
2014
Background Weighed dietary records are considered as the gold standard in nutrition assessment, but 24 h dietary recalls (24-h) and 3 days dietary record (3-d) are usually used. The 24-h is less laborious and cheaper but is necessary to have an experienced interviewer; while the 3-d are completed by the same participant/caregiver, it is more reliable but more expensive, time consuming is high, require previous training and have more dropouts. Our aim was to compare the two procedures to assess dietary intake in HD. Objectives To validate a 24-h vs 3-d to assess dietary intake for patients with HD. Methods Spanish multicenter, longitudinal study (EHDN). A 24-h was administered (with a one-mo…
The histology of ovarian cancer: worldwide distribution and implications for international survival comparisons (CONCORD-2).

OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancers comprise several histologically distinct tumour groups with widely different prognosis. We aimed to describe the worldwide distribution of ovarian cancer histology and to understand what role this may play in international variation in survival.

Global surveillance of cancer survival 1995–2009: analysis of individual data for 25 676 887 patients from 279 population-based registries in 67 coun…
2015
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…
Erratum to “Worldwide comparison of ovarian cancer survival: Histological group and stage at diagnosis (CONCORD-2)” [Gynecol. Oncol. 144 (2017) 396–4…
2017
Objective. Ovarian cancer comprises several histological groups with widely differing levels of survival. We aimed to explore international variation in survival for each group to help interpret international differences in survival from all ovarian cancers combined. We also examined differences in stage-specific survival. Methods. The CONCORD programme is the largest population-based study of global trends in cancer survival, including data from 60 countries for 695,932 women (aged 15–99 years) diagnosed with ovarian cancer during 1995–2009. We defined six histological groups: type I epithelial, type II epithelial, germ cell, sex cord-stromal, other specific non-epithelial and non-specific…
