“…The results of this study reveal the magnitude of premature mortality from cancer in the state of Mato Gross, from 2000 to 2019. The gross increase in PYLL in the period, also verified in another study 7 , may be associated with the growth of the population of Mato Grosso, since an increase in PYLL is expected as the population grows 16 . Between 2000 and 2019, the population of Mato Grosso increased by 39.1% 13 , which has been attributed, in part, to the intense migratory flow generated by agribusiness and its indirect effects on municipal economies, especially in the strengthening of the tertiary sector 17 .…”

“…There is a shortage of certain types of specialists, essential for the provision of quality cancer care, in addition to the limitations and deficiencies of primary health care in the early identification of suspected cases of cancer. This reveals the need for measures that promote the education and training of professionals working in primary care and directly in cancer care 7,25 . In Mato Grosso, an aggravating factor is the centralization of the network in the capital, with few services offered in other cities, making access to an early diagnosis and timely treatment difficult 26 .…”

Objective: To estimate the potential years of life lost (PYLL) to cancer in the State of Mato Grosso, from 2000 to 2019, stratified by sex, according to age groups and cancer types. Methods: It is a quantitative study with an ecological approach developed from secondary data, using the PYLL and its derivatives. Results: In the period analyzed, deaths from cancer in Mato Grosso resulted in 680,338 PYLL before the age of 80, with a variation of 82.5%. Of this total, 52.7% were assigned to males. The rate of the PYLL for cancer before the age of 60 was 70.9% in males, and 80.1% among women. The rates of PYLL increased in the period and showed slightly higher values in males. In the analysis according to age group, the rates of PYLL were also higher in males, except between the ages of 30 and 49. Lung cancers and lymphomas/leukemias resulted in greater losses of PYLL among men and female specific cancers (breast, cervical and uterine, and ovarian cancer) accounted for 36.26% of the PYLL among women, with variability per age groups. Conclusion: In Mato Grosso, the PYLL indicator for cancer presented unfavorable evolution between 2000 and 2019, with greater damage for males and for the younger population. Leukemias, lymphomas, and lung and breast cancers were the main causes for the PYLL.

Cancer death and potential years of life lost in Feicheng City, China

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of cancer-related mortality on life expectancy in Feicheng City. We extracted the death records and population data of Feicheng City from 2013 to 2018 through the Feicheng Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The mortality, premature mortality, cause-eliminated life expectancy, potential years of life lost (PYLL), average potential years of life lost (APYLL), annual change percentage (APC), and other indicators of cancer were calculated. The age-standardized rates were calculated using the sixth national census (2010). From 2013 to 2018, the mortality rate of cancer in Feicheng City was 221.55/100,000, and the standardized mortality rate was 166.37/100,000. The standardized mortality rate increased from 2013 to 2014 and then decreased annually. The premature mortality of cancer was 8.98% and showed a downward trend (APC = −2.47%, t = −3.10, P = .04). From 2013 to 2018, the average life expectancy of residents in Feicheng City was 78.63 years. Eliminating the impact of cancer, life expectancy could increase by 3.72 years. The rate of life loss caused by cancer in men was higher than that in women. The total life loss caused by cancer deaths was 126,870.50 person-years, the potential life loss rate was 22.51‰, and the average potential life loss was 13.30 years. The standardized potential years of life lost rate showed a downward trend (APC = −2.96%, t = −3.72, P = .02), and APYLL decreased by 1.98% annually ( t = −5.44, P = .01). The top 5 malignant tumors in APYLL were leukemia, breast cancer, brain tumor, liver cancer, and ovarian cancer. Lung cancer, esophageal cancer, female breast cancer, and childhood leukemia have a great impact on the life expectancy of residents in Feicheng City. Effective measures need to be taken to reduce the disease burden of malignant tumors.

“…For the PYLL coefficient for cancer, there was a decline of 4.9% for males and an increase of 33.20% for females. A study conducted in Colombia on premature mortality shows that from 1997 to 2012 the total PYLL for cancer increased, being higher in women than in men (18) .…”

Objectives: to analyze premature mortality and Potential Years of Life Lost by noncommunicable diseases in a city in the countryside of São Paulo from 2010 to 2014. Methods: ecological study of temporal tendency, using secondary source. For analysis, the premature mortality coefficient and the Potential Years of Life Lost indicator were used. Results: males had the highest premature mortality rate due to cardiovascular disease, with 213.04 deaths per 100 thousand inhabitants, followed by neoplasms, with 188.44. In women, there was an inversion with 134.22 deaths from cancer and 110.71 deaths from cardiovascular disease. Regarding Potential Years of Life Lost, males had an average of 12.19 years lost by death and females of 13.45 years lost. Conclusions: the results reinforce the need to increase public health prevention and promotion policies to reduce premature deaths, especially among men.
