Cancer registration

A national framework for population-based cancer registration was established in Russia in the late 1990s. Data comparability and validity analyses found substantial differences across ten population-based cancer registries (PBCRs)in Northwest Russia, and only four out of ten met international standards.

Assessing long-term tumor survival rates is crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of tumor treatment and burden. However, timely assessment of long-term survival in patients with pancreatic cancer is lagging in China. In this study, we applied period analysis to estimate the long-term survival of pancreatic cancer patients using data from four population-based cancer registries in Taizhou city, eastern China.

Cancer is a serious health issue in China, but accurate national counts for cancer incidence are not currently available. Knowledge of the cancer burden is necessary for national cancer control planning. In this study, national death survey data and cancer registration data were used to calculate the cancer burden in China using a Bayesian approach.

Survival from cancer is worse in England than in some European countries. To improve survival, strategies in England have focused on early presentation (reducing delay to improve stage at diagnosis), improving quality of care and ensuring equity throughout the patient pathway.

Data from providers of private cancer care are not yet formally included in English cancer registration data. This study aimed to test the exchange of breast cancer data from one Hospital Corporation of America International (HCAI) hospital in London with the cancer registration system and assess the suitability of these data for comparative analyses of case mix and adjusted survival.

These studies are diverse, depending on the definition of maternal mortality used, the sources considered (death certificates, other vital event certificates, medical records, questionnaires or autopsy reports) and the way maternal deaths are identified (record linkage or assessment from experts). In addition, the system of reporting causes of death to a civil registry differs from one country to another, depending on the death certificate forms, the type of certifiers and the coding practice.

For example, a decision must be taken on whether to include cases for which the most valid basis of diag- nosis is solely clinical. A decision should also be taken regarding cases registered on the basis of a death certificate only (DCO), for whom no information is available on the date of diagnosis of the cancer. The most usual practice is to omit these cases from the analysis, but if they repre- sent a large proportion of registrations, it may be better to present two survival analyses, one including DCO cases and another excluding them.

Cancer registries can play an important role in the evaluation and mon- itoring of screening programmes aimed at detecting pre-invasive condi- tions. Cancer registration data have been used in routine-data-based stud- ies to examine trends in disease rates in relation to screening frequencies within a population and to compare disease rates between different popu- lations with the coverage offered by their screening programmes (see Section 16.3.1).

The ability to distinguish individuals from events (e.g., hospital admis- sions) is a key feature of a cancer registry. Thus, the registry should have sufficient information on each individual to avoid multiple registrations of the same subject. The most universal and generally used identifier is the name. The utility of using names will vary depending on local cus- tom. For instance, surname (or family name) may not be used—persons may be known only by their first name. Individuals may change their name when they get married or for other social reasons.

Other identification items such as name, sex and date of birth (or, approx- imate age, if the date of birth is not known) are important to avoid multi- ple registrations of the same patient or tumour, to obtain follow-up data and to conduct any type of record linkage. Patient’s usual address is essential for establishing the residence status, to exclude all non-residential patients, to conduct analysis by area of residence and for follow-up of the patients. Data on ethnicity is important in populations containing distinct ethnic groups....
