ABSTRACT

Objective:

To investigate cancer mortality in Zhejiang cancer registration areas from 2010 to 2014.

Methods:

Cancer regis-tration data were collected from 14 cancer registries of Zhejiang province. The number of cases, crude rates, proportions, age stan-dardized rates, cumulative rates, cut rates, age-specific rates, top 10 mortality ranks, and annual percentage change (APC) of cancer mortality were calculated.

Results:

A total of 108,514 cancer deaths in Zhejiang cancer registration areas from 2010 to 2014, including 70,578 males and 37,936 females, were recorded. The crude mortality rate was 186.06/105. The standardized mortality rates in Chi-nese (ASMRC) and world populations were 103.02/105 and 101.73/105, respectively. The cumulative mortality rate (0-74 years old) was 11.46%. The ratio of ASMRC in male and female was 1.95, and that in urban and rural areas was 0.93. Age-specific cancer mortality in-creased significantly after 40 years old and peaked at the 85+age group. The crude cancer mortality increased from 2010 (182.85/105) to 2014 (191.00/105) by 4.46%. After age standardization, the mortality rate standardized by Chinese population was reduced from 107.85/105 to 100.60/105. The APC of ASMRC was-1.96%(P=0.017). The top three mortality cancers were lung cancer, liver cancer and gastric cancer. The top 10 cancers accounted for 89.51%of all cancer deaths. The mortality rates in different age groups were inconsis-tent. Leukemia was the main cancer type among 0~14-year-old population. Liver cancer was the most common cancer type in 15~44-year-old population. Lung cancer was the main cancer in population above 45 years old. The ASMRCs of liver cancer, gastric cancer and esophageal cancer decreased, whereas those of pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer and ovarian cancer increased.

Conclusion:

Can-cer mortality in Zhejiang cancer registration areas increased, which revealed that the number of cancer deaths will continue to in-crease. However, the ASMRC decreased, which indicated that cancer prevention in Zhejiang province had achieved certain effects. Fur-ther measurements, such as health education, cancer screening, and early detection and treatment, should be improved to reduce the danger of cancer.
