TL;DR
The incidence, mortality, and survival of ovarian cancer in Manizales mirror those reported in other Latin American populations, and clinical stage at diagnosis emerged as the principal predictor of survival.
Introduction: Colorectal cancer is a major public health problem due to its high incidence and mortality rates worldwide. Various clinical and sociodemographic characteristics are intrinsically linked to this neoplasm and can have a significant influence on both survival estimates and the utilization of healthcare reso...
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer remains a significant cause of mortality worldwide. This study analyzed gastric cancer mortality trends over 24 years, projections for 2030, and their relationship with indigenous populations and gastroenterology services in Mexico. METHODS The study was based on mortality data from the Mini...
Melanoma mortality in Brazil remained stable overall, but with marked age, social, and regional inequalities, and these findings support regionally tailored prevention, early diagnosis, improved health information quality, and equitable access to specialized oncologic care.
BACKGROUND Patients with rare cancers have consistently been reported to have poorer survival than patients with common cancers. We hypothesized that the excess mortality could be attributable to differences in tumor histology and stage at diagnosis and, explored whether it reflected a broader relationship between canc...
Background Cancer incidence and mortality are rising in Africa, yet the distribution and determinants of cancer in high HIV-prevalence regions remain limited. We characterized cancer epidemiology, treatment, and survival among adults in western Kenya, where HIV prevalence ranges between 10.3% and 11.7%. Methods This re...
Male gender, older age, and distant tumor stage are significant predictors of higher mortality, while chemotherapy and surgery substantially improve survival in GBC patients, highlighting the necessity for targeted interventions and personalized treatment approaches to enhance survival rates.
