简介:Objective:ToanalyzetheincidenceandmortalityratesoflungcancerinChinafrom2008to2012.Methods:IncidentanddeathcasesoflungcancerwereretrievedfromtheNationalCentralCancerRegistry(NCCR)databasecollectingfrom135cancerregistriesinChinaduring2008-2012.Thecrudeincidenceandmortalityratesoflungcancerwerecalculatedbyarea(urban/rural),region(eastern,middle,western),genderandagegroup(0,1-4,5-9,…,85+).Chinacensusin2000andSegi’sworldpopulationwereappliedforagestandardizedrates.JoinPoint(Version4.5.0.1)modelwasusedfortimetrendanalysis.Results:Thecrudeincidencerateoflungcancerwas54.66/100,000whichrankedthefirstinoverallcancers.Theage-standardizedincidenceratesbyChinapopulation(ASIRC)andbyWorldpopulation(ASIRW)were35.13/100,000and34.86/100,000,respectively.ThecrudemortalityoflungcancerinChinawas45.60/100,000anditwasthefirstcauseofcancer-relateddeathinoverallcancers.Theage-standardizedmortalityratesbyChinesestandardpopulation(ASMRC)andbyworldstandardpopulation(ASMRW)were28.57/100,000and28.22/100,000,respectively.Incidenceandmortalityratesoflungcancerwerehigherinmalesthaninfemalesandhigherinurbanareasthaninruralareas.Easternareashadthehighestincidenceandmortalityratesfollowedbymiddleandwesternareas.Incidenceandmortalityratesoflungcancerretainedlowlevelinagegroupsbefore40yearsoldbutincreasedgreatlyafterandpeakedinagegroupof80-84.During2003-2012,thetemporaltrendoftheincidencerateoflungcancerinbothsexesinChinawasgeneralstable(P<0.05).Thelungcancerincidencerateincreasedby0.71%peryearinfemales(P<0.05)and2.26%peryearinruralareas(P<0.05).Themortalityrateoflungcancerdecreasedslightlyannuallyduring2003-2012inChina(P>0.05).Inurbanareas,itdeclinedby0.76%peryear(P<0.05),butroseby2.09%peryear(P<0.05)inruralareas.Conclusions:Appropriatetargetedprevention,earlydetectionandtreatment
