The incidence of cancer of the thyroid gland among children and of breast cancer among women had risen.

(a) Measures to improve the data on the incidence of the various types of cancer

Iran proposes to retrospectively examine the incidence of cancer in residents of Iran from 1991 to 2003 in order to determine whether a relationship exists between the incidence of cancer and pollution resulting from Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Main indicators in relation to cancer (data from the Health Statistics and Medical Technology Agency) Latvia has taken a number of steps to reduce the incidence of cancer.

The incidence of cancer The incidence of malignant tumours continues to be significant in Latvia, but comparatively few of these tumours are diagnosed during preventive treatment (see the table below).

In addition, registries on cancer and hereditary anaemia were established in all fields to monitor incidence and prevalence trends.

There s also a fascinating connection to cancer here, because people with neurologic diseases have a very low incidence of most cancers.

The Panel considers that a study of possible increases in cancer incidence caused by Iraq's invasion and occupation would be appropriate.

The number of people enduring illnesses attributable to radiation exposure was rising at an alarming rate, as was the incidence of cancer.

The evidence so far would indicate that the current levels of exposure will not result in any detectable increase in cancer incidence.

Moreover, younger patients, at least, can better withstand the side effects of cancer treatment. Proponents also contend that the two decade decline in the overall incidence of deaths from prostate cancer is the result of increasingly widespread PSA testing.

For the same year, the incidence of malignant neoplasms in women aged 15 and over showed that cervical cancer was the leading cause of morbidity in cancer patients, with a rate of 75.4 per cent per 100,000 women aged 15 and over, followed by breast cancer, with a rate of 19.6 per 100,000.

Lung cancer is the leading form of cancer followed by breast cancer, skin cancer, stomach cancer and prostate cancer.

4.3 It is submitted that the nuclear tests carried out will, with some degree of probability, increase the incidence of cases of cancer among inhabitants of French Polynesia.

The use of depleted uranium based ammunition against Iraq has led to an increase in the incidence of cancer, miscarriage, disorders of the nervous system and foetal abnormalities.

Today, the attention paid by people to tumors is increasing rapidly, which in a large part might be linked to cancer incidence at a high level in recent years.

In January 2001, the provincial government supported establishment of the PEI Pap Screening Program with the goal to reduce the incidence and mortality rates of cervical cancer in PEI.

Environmental pollution has led to an increase in the incidence of cancer, while Iraqi health institutions are unable to provide the medicines or other means to treat such disease.

(In fact, lung cancer kills one in ten smokers.) But the incidence of certain kinds of lung cancer continues to rise particularly in women making it one of the most prolific killers worldwide, despite the general decline of smoking over the last 30 years.

Since 1990 the National Cancer Institute has been responsible for running the national programme on diagnosis and monitoring of cervical cancer, which was devised as a response to the high incidence of this disease and its excessively high levels in a number of towns.

We have more trials planned for lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer and breast cancer.

The Committee intends to continue to assess the cancer mortality and incidence data and to validate the risk estimates derived with those from studies of medically or occupationally exposed groups.

The assessment of cancer risks is based on analysis of epidemiological studies of cancer mortality and incidence among the survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, patients exposed to radiation for diagnosis and therapeutic purposes, and radiation workers and individuals exposed to environmental radiation.

The continuous assessment of cancer mortality and incidence data of survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and validation of derived risk estimates with those from studies of medically or occupationally exposed groups

I have stomach cancer. Stomach cancer?

Even allowing for the fact that a person may have more than one cancer, at the incidence rates prevailing in 2001, it would be expected that one in three men and one in four women would be diagnosed with a cancer in the first 75 years of life.

If our key message is stay out of the sun forever, we are doomed to fail. Creating a culture of cave dwellers is no way to decrease the incidence of skin cancer.

Incidence of poverty

I guess my cancer different from your cancer.

The highest rate is that of trachea cancer, bronchitis and lung cancer, followed by skin cancers (without melanoma), breast cancer and stomach cancer.

With some fluctuations, a notable increase over the period 1987 to 2001 can be seen in the age standardized breast cancer incidence rates in the target group (women aged between 50 and 69 years).

Suddenly, my cancer was a cancer that was everywhere, the cancer of cruelty, the cancer of greed, the cancer that gets inside people who live down the streets from chemical plants and they're usually poor the cancer inside the coal miner's lungs, the cancer of stress for not achieving enough, the cancer of buried trauma, the cancer in caged chickens and polluted fish, the cancer in women's uteruses from being raped, the cancer that is everywhere from our carelessness.

Other diseases on the increase include lung cancer, cancer of the digestive system and skin cancer.
