Analysis of incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in cancer registration area in Zhejiang province from 2000 to 2009 / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the epidemic characteristics and trends of incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in cancer registration areas in Zhejiang province from 2000 to 2009.Methods Clinical data incidence and mortality of prostate cancer were collected from 6 cancer registration areas in Zhejiang province,including Hangzhou,Jiaxing,Jiashan,Haining,Shangyu and Xianju.Crude rates,standardized rate and change trend,age-specific rates and annual percent change (APC,95％ CI) of prostate cancer were checked,sorted and analyzed in Zhejiang Cancer Center.Results The prostate cancer incidence rate from 2000 to 2009 was 9.79/100 000,age-standardized incidence rates by world standard population (ASIRW) was 6.39/100 000,and the incidence cumulative risk of males aged 0-74 was 0.72％ ; while the mortality rate was 2.73/100 000,age-standardized mortality rates by world standard population was 1.74/100 000,and the mortality cumulative risk of males aged 0-74 was 0.14％.Age-specific incidence of prostate cancer remained low before 50,years old and peaked at over 85-year-old group (130.30/100 000).Age-specific mortality of prostate cancer increased after 55,and also peaked at over 85-year-old group (81.19/100 000).The annual prostate cancer incidence rate generally grew from 1.39/100 000 (2000) to 13.89/100 000 (2009),and the APC was 14.18％ (95％ CI,9.68％-18.98％).Meanwhile,the prostate cancer mortality rate also increased from 1.52/100 000 (2000) to 3.58/100 000 (2009),and the APC was 11.83％ (95％ CI,5.69％-18.33％).Conclusion Prostate cancer incidence and mortality in Zhejiang cancer registration areas increased sharply,and the prevention and treatment of prostate cancer should be strengthened.
