Objective: To determine the perceived burden and functional status of gastric cancer patients with gastrectomy in a center of cancer in Bogota (Colombia) between 2013 and 2016. Materials and methods: Retrospective description of patients intervened by gastrectomy distributed in three groups: Patients with gastrectomy from 1 to 12 months of surgical intervention, 13 to 14 months and 25 to 36 months. For this, it was used the disease burden perception instrument and the Karnofsky scale. Results: 127 patients were included. 63 from 1 to 12 months, 43 from 13 to 24 months, and 21 from 25 to 36 months of intervention. Gastric adenocarcinoma of intestinal pattern stage III and II predominate. More than 50 % of the patients required total gastrectomy and received adjuvant chemotherapy. The majority of participants performed regular activities with mild signs and symptoms, presented low overall perceived burden and functional performance without statistically significant differences between groups. Patients from 1 to 12 months of intervention reported greater levels of physical discomfort. Conclusions: In patients with gastrectomy for gastric cancer, physical symptoms persist such as emotional disturbances, economic difficulties and limitations in the work role, findings to be included in follow-up programs.

“…In Colombia, gastric cancer has an annual incidence of 16.3/100,000 inhabitants and mortality is calculated at 14.2/100,000 inhabitants 5 . Five-year survival is less than 15% because patients are diagnosed at advanced stages 29 - 31 The cause M:I for gastric cancer was greater than 1, suggesting that incidence rates are underestimated ( Table 1S ).…”

Background: This study provides information on cancer incidence and mortality in a Colombian population during 2010-2014, based on the data and methodology of the Population-based Cancer Registry of Antioquia to facilitate the implementation of cancer control strategies. Methods: This is a descriptive study of cancer incidence and mortality in a population, residing in the urban area of the municipality of Medellin. The cancers included in the study are those prioritized in the cancer control plan for Colombia (PDCC-cancers). The collection, processing and systematization of the data were performed in accordance with internationally standardized parameters for population cancer registries. Incidence and mortality rates were calculated by gender, age and tumor location.Results: During 2010-2014 there were 22,379 new cancer cases recorded in the urban area of the municipality of Medellin, of which 43.5% corresponded to the PDCC-cancers. During the same period, 14,922 cancer deaths were reported, 23.5% related to the PDCC-cancers, 53.5% in women. Prostate cancer and breast cancer were the principal cause of morbidity in men and women, respectively, and lung cancer was the principal cause of death for both sexes.Conclusion: Cancer is a health problem for the population of Medellin. It is necessary to emphasize research and monitor risk factors, the health response and the capacity of the health provider network when facing the growing demand caused by this epidemic.

Introdução: O câncer de estômago é um dos tipos de neoplasias mais graves no mundo, apresentando alta incidência e mortalidade. Objetivo: Analisar a taxa de mortalidade por câncer de estômago entre os anos de 2000 e 2015 na Paraíba, Brasil. Material e Método: Trata-se de um estudo do tipo ecológico, em que os dados foram obtidos no Atlas On-line de Mortalidade por Câncer. Foram coletados o número de óbitos por câncer de estômago na Paraíba entre 2000 e 2015. Além disso, foram coletadas as taxas de mortalidade específica bruta e ajustada por idade para o sexo masculino e feminino. Para avaliar a significância da tendência temporal utilizou-se o teste de regressão linear simples. O modelo estimado serviu para calcular a Variação Percentual Anual Estimada. Resultados: A taxa de mortalidade por câncer de estômago, padronizada pela idade no sexo masculino, foi maior em todos os anos, em comparação com os valores apresentados pela população geral e o sexo feminino. Além disso, no período analisado, o aumento da mortalidade foi de 0,027 óbitos por 100 mil habitantes, 0,029 por 100 mil homens e 0,026 por 100 mil mulheres. Tanto na população geral quanto na população masculina e feminina, especificamente, observou-se aumento significativo (p<0,001) da mortalidade. O sexo masculino foi o que apresentou a maior acréscimo anual no número de óbitos, com uma variação percentual média anual estimada de 2,94%. Conclusão: A taxa de mortalidade por câncer de estômago na população em geral, principalmente nos homens, aumentou de forma considerável na Paraíba entre os anos de 2000 e 2015.
