Trends in incidence rates of oesophagus and gastric cancer in Italy by subsite and histology, 1986???1997

Abstract: It is plausible that the different tendencies in oesophageal and proximal gastric cancer in men and women are attributable to heterogeneous distributions of risk factors by sex or age.

“…22,23 Indeed, the incidence of cardiac cancer has gradually increased with the prevalence of overweight adults in Western countries. 24 Although in Japan most gastric cancers originate in the middle or lower third of the stomach, 25 cancers originating in the cardiac area may increase in the future; hence, the importance of TG globally is growing.…”

“…Gastric carcinomas in the cardiac region have shown an unexplained increase in frequency [26], and it was of interest to see if this increase could be related to use of PPI. Carcinomas developing in hypergastrinemic patients are immunoreactive for neuroendocrine markers, and we therefore examined cardia cancers for such markers.…”

“…Nevertheless, there seems to be an increase in carcinomas localized to the cardia [2–5], especially in younger women and older men [6]. However, other studies have failed to demonstrate such an increase [79].…”

“…Eine deutliche Zunahme der ösophagealen Adenokarzinome ist vor allem in nördlichen Ländern zu verzeichnen, während in südlichen Ländern das Plattenepithelkarzinom des Ösophagus deutlich überwiegt [24,25]. Eine deutliche Zunahme der ösophagealen Adenokarzinome von 3,7 bis 5,0% pro Jahr wird allerdings auch aus südlichen Ländern wie Spanien und Italien berichtet [26,27] [38].…”

“…In den USA traten Anfang der 1990er-Jahre Adenokarzinome an der Kardia bei der weißen männlichen Bevölkerung in annähernd gleicher Häufigkeit auf wie alle anderen Tumoren des Magens zusammen [18]. In Italien zeigt sich ebenfalls eine generelle Zunahme des Kardiakarzinoms für den Zeitraum von 1986 bis 1997 [26]. In Spanien war ähnlich wie in den USA eine Zunahme nur in der männlichen Bevölkerung zu verzeichnen, während in der Schweiz sogar ein Rückgang der Inzidenz von Kardiakarzinomen dokumentiert wurde [27,31].…”
