Observed and relative survival and 5-year outcomes of patients discharged after acute myocardial infarction: the nationwide AMI-PL database.
2020
Background: Long‑term follow‑up data from a large Polish acute myocardial infarction (AMI‑PL) database are still unavailable. Aims: This study aimed to assess the 5‑year outcomes of patients discharged after hospitalization for AMI in Poland in relation to age. Methods: The studywas based on the nationwide AMI‑PL registry including data on the management and long‑term outcomes of all patients admitted to hospitals with AMI (codes I21–I22 according to the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision [ICD ‑10]), derived from the database of the obligatory healthcare payer in Poland.The current analysis included all patients after AMI who were discharged …
Health-related quality of life is a prognostic factor for survival in older patients after colorectal cancer diagnosis: A population-based study
2015
International audience; Background: Studies carried out in the context of clinical trials have shown a relationship between survival and health-related quality of life in colorectal cancer patients.Aims: We assessed the prognostic value of health-related quality of life at diagnosis and of its longitudinal evolution on survival in older colorectal cancer patients. Methods: All patients aged >= 65 years, diagnosed with new colorectal cancer between 2003 and 2005 and registered in the Digestive Cancer Registry of Burgundy were eligible. Patients were asked to complete the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 at inclusion, three, six …
Survival of European patients diagnosed with myeloid malignancies: a HAEMACARE study
2013
Population-based information on the survival of patients with myeloid malignancies is rare mainly because some entities were not recognized as malignant until the publication of the third revision of the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology and World Health Organization classification in 2000. In this study we report the survival of patients with myeloid malignancies, classified by updated criteria, in Europe. We analyzed 58,800 cases incident between 1995 to 2002 in 48 population-based cancer registries from 20 European countries, classified into HAEMACARE myeloid malignancy groupings. The period approach was used to estimate 5-year relative survival in 2000-2002. The rela…
Disclosing progress in cancer survival with less delay
2019
Cancer registration plays a key role in monitoring the burden of cancer. However, cancer registry (CR) data are usually made available with substantial delay to ensure best possible completeness of case ascertainment. Here, we investigate empirically with routinely available data whether such a delay is mandatory for survival analyses or whether data can be used earlier to provide more up-to-date survival estimates. We compared distributions of prognostic factors and period relative survival estimates for three population-based CRs in Germany (Schleswig-Holstein (SH), Rhineland-Palatinate (RP), Saarland (SA)) computed on datasets extracted one (DY+1) to 5 years after the year of diagnosis (…
Sex Differences in Colorectal Cancer Survival: Population-Based Analysis of 164,996 Colorectal Cancer Patients in Germany
2013
Risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) is considerably higher in men compared to women; however, there is inconclusive evidence of sex differences in CRC prognosis. We aimed to assess and explain sex differences in 5-year relative survival using standard and model-based period analysis among 164,996 patients diagnosed with CRC from 1997 to 2006 and reported to 11 German cancer registries covering a population of 33 million inhabitants. Age-adjusted 5-year relative survival was higher in women (64.5% vs. 61.9%, P<0.0001). A substantial survival advantage of women was confirmed in multivariate analysis after adjusting for CRC stage and subsite in subjects under 65 years of age (relative excess ri…
Survival of Patients with Oral Cavity Cancer in Germany
2012
The purpose of the present study was to describe the survival of patients diagnosed with oral cavity cancer in Germany. The analyses relied on data from eleven population-based cancer registries in Germany covering a population of 33 million inhabitants. Patients with a diagnosis of oral cavity cancer (ICD-10: C00-06) between 1997 and 2006 are included. Period analysis for 2002-2006 was applied to estimate five-year age-standardized relative survival, taking into account patients' sex as well as grade and tumor stage. Overall five-year relative survival for oral cavity cancer patients was 54.6%. According to tumor localization, five-year survival was 86.5% for lip cancer, 48.1% for tongue c…
Epidemiology and prognosis of synchronous colorectal cancers
2008
Abstract Background The aim of this population-based study was to report on the incidence, treatment and prognosis of synchronous colorectal carcinomas. Methods Data were obtained from the population-based cancer registry of Burgundy. Results Between 1976 and 2004, 15 562 colorectal cancers were diagnosed. Some 3·8 per cent of patients had synchronous colorectal cancers. The risk of having synchronous cancers was higher in men (odds ratio (OR) 1·41 (95 per cent confidence interval (c.i.) 1·19 to 1·68)), when associated adenomas were present (OR 2·02 (95 per cent c.i. 1·69 to 2·41)), when there were adenomatous remnants on pathological examination (OR 2·10 (95 per cent c.i. 1·73 to 2·55)) an…
Trends in the incidence and management of biliary tract cancer: a French population-based study.
2011
The trends in incidence and management of biliary tract cancer (BTC) were investigated in a well-defined French population over a 30-year period (1976-2005).Data were obtained from the Burgundy digestive cancer registry. Age-standardised incidence rates and trends in incidence were determined. Treatment and stage at diagnosis were also investigated. Five-year survival rates were calculated.Six hundred and fifteen cases of BTC were recorded. There was no significant change in BTC incidence over the 30-year period. For extrahepatic BTC age-standardised incidence rates were 1.1/100,000 for 1976-80 and 2001-2005. These rates were respectively 0.3 and 0.2/100,000 for intrahepatic BTC. The propor…
Reasons for low cervical cancer survival in new accession European Union countries: a EUROCARE-5 study.
2019
Purpose: With better access to early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, cervical cancer (CC) burden decreased in several European countries. In Eastern European (EE) countries, which accessed European Union in 2004, CC survival was worse than in the rest of Europe. The present study investigates CC survival differences across five European regions, considering stage at diagnosis (local, regional and metastatic), morphology (mainly squamous versus glandular tumours) and patients’ age. Methods: We analysed 101,714 CC women diagnosed in 2000–2007 and followed-up to December 2008. Age-standardised 5-year relative survival (RS) and the excess risks of cancer death in the 5 years after diagnosi…
Survival from colorectal cancer in Germany in the early 21st century.
2012
Background: Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in Germany and the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in both men and women. The aim of this study is to provide detailed analysis of recent developments in survival of colorectal cancer patients using newly available data on a national basis. Methods: We included data from 11 German cancer registries covering a population of 33 million inhabitants. Period analysis and modelled period analysis were used to provide most up-to-date estimates of 5-year relative survival in 2002–2006. Results: The analysis was based on records of 164 996 colorectal cancer patients. Five-year relative survival was 63.0% overall, decreased wit…
