Breast Cancer Mortality in the Americas and Australasia over the Period 1980–2017 with Predictions for 2025

Abstract: Substantial progress has been made in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of breast cancer over the last decades. This has affected mortality rates but has also led to inequality in epidemiological trends between different regions of the world. We extracted death certification data for breast cancer from the World Health Organization database. We analyzed trends in breast cancer mortality in selected countries from America, Asia, and Oceania over the 1980–2017 period and predicted numbers of deaths and ra… Show more

“…According to Wojtyla et al, BC death rates are not decreasing in LA countries. For women aged 20–49 years, low mortality rates are observed only in Chile and Cuba, while an increase in mortality is observed in the rest of the LA countries [ 36 ]. Although the incidence of BC is higher in the US and European populations, the mortality–incidence ratio is higher for LA, as described by Dutil et al [ 37 ]…”

“…As maiores diminuições na mortalidade foram observadas na Austrália. As tendências de mortalidade nos países asiáticos permaneceram entre as mais baixas do mundo (Wojtyla et al, 2021b).…”

“…Breast cancer has been the leading cause of female cancer-related deaths in the Russian Federation, Ukraine, and Israel, whereas it ranks second after lung in Australia over the last decade. In these high mortality countries, predicted declining trends likely account for advancements in diagnosis and treatment, rather than a decrease in exposure to risk factors (Duggan et al , 2021; Wojtyla et al , 2021). Flattening predicted trends in Israel could reflect a greater prevalence of inherited mutations in Israeli women associated with aggressive and early breast cancer development (Walsh et al , 2017).…”
