“…The overall Pap smear rate in Taiwan is only around 50%, 64 which confers to a higher incidence of cervical cancer in Taiwan than in developed countries. 65 In our data, there is also a higher proportion of patients in advanced stages of cervical cancer than the report from Norway. 3 On the contrary, women at perinatal care may have more frequent Obstetrics clinic visits and a higher likelihood to receive Pap smear, which may confer to a better outcome in such a group.…”

“…Previous studies conducted in the United States, Vietnam, and Taiwan reported the recent peak age at 70 to 85 years, 60 to 74 years, and >85 years, respectively. [53][54][55] Differences in the peak age may affect the duration of routine screening. In the region with an older peak age, older women still may need to be screened.…”

BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with a substantial percentage of cervical cancer, and a significant percentage of anal, penile, vaginal, vulvar, oral cavity, oropharyngeal, and laryngeal cancers. Understanding the burden and trends of HPVattributable cancers is crucial to HPV prevention strategies. In the current study, the authors estimated the latest burden and trends of HPV-attributable cancers in China. METHODS: Data from the following sources were used. The number of new cancer cases and cancer deaths in China were estimated based on the China Cancer Registry Annual Report. The population-attributable fraction was estimated using pooled high-risk HPV prevalence and biomarker-positive rates, which were calculated using random effects meta-analyses. Cancer burden estimates were stratified by anatomic site, sex, and age. RESULTS: In 2015, a total of 110,650 new cancer cases and 36,714 cancer deaths attributable to HPV infection were estimated to have occurred in China, of which cervical cancer accounted for 85.6% and 78.1%, respectively. The age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of HPV-attributable cancers were 5.63 and 1.81 per 100,000 person-years, respectively. The ASIR and ASMR both varied by anatomic site, with the highest rates noted for cervical cancer at 4.83 and 1.42 per 100,000 person-years, respectively. Between 2005 and 2015, the ASIR and ASMR demonstrated significant upward trends for all HPV-attributable cancers combined. CONCLUSIONS: Between 2005 and 2015, cervical cancer accounted for the vast majority of HPV-attributable cancers and its incidence and mortality increased rapidly in China. The comprehensive prevention of cervical cancer remains the most important target in the prevention of HPV-attributable cancers.

“…Furthermore, cervical cancer is preventable which is often caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, particularly for two most common strains of HPV—16 and 18 [ 21 ]. HPV infection can result in precancerous lesions which increase the risk of cervical cancer [ 22 ]. Although the widespread implementation of the Papanicolaou (Pap) cytology test since the 1960s has reduced cervical cancer incidence and mortality in Canada and many high-income countries, the reductions have recently leveled off and disparities continue [ 23 ].…”

Background. As the second most common gynecologic cancer worldwide, cervical cancer has led to morbidity and mortality in thousands of women. Our study is aimed at comparing the long-term trends of mortality rates for cervical cancer in three high-income countries—Canada, Korea, and Italy—and analyzing the detached effects of chronological age, time period, and birth cohort by age-period-cohort (APC) analysis. Methods. Joinpoint regression was used in this study, and the age-period-cohort model combined with the intrinsic estimator method was also applied to estimate the detached effect of each age, time period, and birth cohort on cervical cancer mortality. Results. For the overall trends of ASMRs for cervical cancer, the rates for Canada and Italy generally decreased during the whole observation periods while the rate for Korea exhibited a significant increase from 1986 to 2003. The APC analysis suggested that the cancer mortality risks consistently increased with age in the age groups including women aged 20 to 50 years in all areas. The period effect exhibited a general upward trend for both Korea and Italy, while a decreased trend was observed for Canada during the whole observation period. The mortality risk generally decreased with birth cohort, except there was a slight increase for younger generations in the three countries. Conclusions. Our study shows that the overall decrease in the cohort effect may have contributed to the reduced mortality rate for Italy and Canada, and the increased period effects and cohort effect in younger generations may have led to the increase in cancer mortality rate for Korea.
