Abstract: Prostate cancer mortality projections at the nationwide and regional levels to the year 2025 are carried out in this ecological study that is based on an analysis of Brazilian trends between 1996 and 2010. The predictions were made for the period 2011-2025 utilizing the Nordpred program based on the period of 1996-2010, using the age-period-cohort model. A significant increase was observed in the Brazilian rates between 1996 and 2006, followed by a non-significant decrease. The projections indicate a decrease … Show more

“…For the period from 1980 to 2010, there was an upward trend in mortality from the disease to Brazil and all regions, with the northeast showing the highest variation, while the south and southeast showed the lowest 18 . Similarly, analysis of the trend of prostate cancer mortality rates in Brazil and regions in the period 1996 to 2010 showed a significant increase between 1996 and 2006, followed by a non-significant decrease, with an estimate of decrease at national level until the year 2025 and in the Midwest, south, and southeast regions, as opposed to an increase in the north and northeast regions 19 . However, a study that evaluated the burden of the disease in Central and South America found, for Brazil, a practically stable trend in mortality rates between 1997 and 2008 20 .…”

“…In Brazil, the distribution of hierarchic levels for patient care is unequal, with high disparities: areas with better urban structures (Southeast and South regions), count with well-equipped and distributed health systems, while the North and Northeast regions suffer with the absence of intermediate hierarchic levels. Besides the traditional concentration of equipment and services, with scarce intermediate-level healthcare centers (as occurs in the Northeast), the North region is also affected by a scarce occupation of the territory, which is negatively reflected on the organization and distribution of the offer of health services (25,26) . The unequal allocation of resources, concentration of health professionals in urban centers, and the lack of investments in resources and infrastructure lead to the reproduction of socioeconomic inequalities in the assistance of individuals with cancer (24) .…”

“…In addition to these data, it is estimated that by 2025, there will be a significant increase in mortality from PC in the North and Northeast, followed by a decrease in other regions of the country. 21 Such information is explained due to the influence of the regionspecific social, economic and geographic aspects that interfere with access to specialized services and the temporal widening between diagnosis and treatment. 22 It is mentioned that the chances of progressing to a lethal outcome are higher when patients are hospitalized.…”

“…Dessa forma, quando não considerados os tumores de pele não melanoma, o câncer de próstata é o mais incidente entre os homens em todas as regiões do país, com taxas de 98,85,69,83,66,75,56,17 e 29,41 por 100 mil homens no Sul, Sudeste, Centro-Oeste, Nordeste e Norte, respectivamente (Ministério da Saúde, 2018). Sua taxa anual de mortalidade é de 16 por 100 mil habitantes e, a cada ano, cerca de 14.500 óbitos relacionados ao câncer de próstata são registrados no Brasil (Jerez-Roig et al, 2014). Entre os pacientes que evoluem a óbito por câncer, 90% apresentam evidências de metástase óssea (Bubendorf et al, 2000).…”

“…8 Nevertheless, while prostate cancer mortality in Western countries has reduced due to early diagnosis and treatment, the burden of prostate cancer is still growing in many developing countries, including Iran. [9][10][11][12][13][14] In Iran, cancer is the third leading cause of mortality after cardiovascular disease and accidents, while prostate cancer is the third most common cancer and the eighth leading cause of mortality. 13 However, trends in prostate cancer-related mortality have not been reliably measured in different regions within the country.…”
