[Incidence and mortality of laryngeal neoplasms. Soria, 1950-1989].

Age-adjusted mortality and incidence rates for larynx cancer were calculated in Soria (urban and rural areas), for the 1950-89 and 1981-89 periods respectively. Both mortality and incidence rates were higher in urban area (p less than 0.01), and in males (p less than 0.01). There has been no increase in the mortality trend for the 1950-89 period. Age-adjusted incidence rates for men in Soria are higher respect to those reported in other countries. Soria and Murcia rates are the lowest in Spain larynx cancer records, being Asturias rates the highest in the world (20.6 per 100,000 population).

[Mortality trends in respiratory tract tumors. Soria, 1950-1985].

From 1950 to 1985, we have ascertained the causes of deaths caused by respiratory tract tumors of the: mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs and pleura. They have been grouped by sexes and divided among three decades (1950-1979) and a six-year period (1980-1985), Gross Rates (G.R.) and Standard Rates (S.R.) with relation to said parameters to plot their Death Rate Tendencies. An increasing death rate is observed in men as related to tumors of the bronchi and lungs, with a higher risk statistics which are quite significant from 1950 to 1985. On the other hand, there is a decrease in the deaths of both sexes due to neoplasias of the larynx. With regard to the oral tumors, there has been a minimum increase in the men over the last few years, the female death rate being practically nil. There are differences between men and women which are quite significant statistically with regard to death rates related to tumors of the mouth, larynx, Bronchi and lungs. Nevertheless, given the method for collecting data, it can only be used as a guide, due to the turns affecting the sources of information.

[Mortality trends in gynecologic tumors in Soria. 1950-1985].

We have carried out in the province of Soria neoplastic mortality tendency curves for tumors in the breast, uterus and ovaries, on the basis of their adjusted rates of mortality during four periods: three decades (1950-59/60-69/70-79) and one six-year period (1980-85). We have observed an increased risk of mortality due to breast tumors in women, which is statistically significant (p less than 0.01) in the global provincial figure, which has gone from an adjusted rate of 6.08 deaths per 10(5) women in 1950-59 to 14.25 in the years 1980-85. We have also detected an increased risk of ovarian tumors in the provincial total, rising from 0.48 to 2.0 deaths per 10(5) women, while those located in the uterus show a virtually stable mortality over the 36 years under study (5.89/1950-59) (5.24/1980-85) x 10(5) women. In relation to other existing figures, our rates are, in the case of breast and ovarian tumors, similar to the global Spanish figures and lower than those for Cataluña and Navarra. In the case of tumors of the uterus, the adjusted mortality rates are lower than the national average and lower than any other Spanish figures available.

[Histopathologic evaluation of death certificates in Soria in 1985].

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the quality of the Death Certificates by means of the Death Statistics Bulletins, in their NEOPLASIC aspect in the year 1985 in the Province of Soria, determining the histopathologic confirmation of the deaths by means of the neoplasic patients' records in the two existing Pathology Services. An overall histologic verification of 80.76% is observed in the cases with an I.C. of +/- 4.79. In the case of BREAST, HEMATOLOGIC, OROPHARYNX, ENDOMETRIUM, ESOPHAGUS, OVARIAN, LARYNX and VULVA tumors, it is 100%. Whereas it is 14.3% in HEPATIC Tumors. Of the total of deaths registered in said year, the percentage of deaths caused by malignant neoplasias is over 26%, more than a fourth of which were Gastric. The preparation of the Death Certificates should be modified so that they can be objectively evaluated epidemiologically without bias or mistakes.

[Relationship among the neoplasm incidence and mortality rates in the province of Soria. 1981-85].

During the years 1981 to 1985, every single death and neoplastic illness in the province of Soria was recorded, and tabulated in relation to age, sex, location, and place of residence. Adjusted Rates (Direct method) were obtained for all locations, both in mortality and in incidence, as well as their Standard Errors. The deceased and the neoplastically ill were grouped in areas--Urban an Rural--in order to establish risk differences in both areas, the intervals of confidence being established according to the Miettinem method. The neoplastic risk is always higher in males, both incidence and Global Mortality being statistically significant (p less than 0.01), as well as most of the locations. Gastric tumors have the highest rate of incidence (global and in males) and mortality (global and in both sexes), with higher presence in rural areas than in urban ones (p less than 0.05). On the other hand, in males, there is a higher incidence in urban areas of Lung Tumors (p less than 0.01) and Larynx (p less than 0.05). The latter, in males, and in the bladder in both sexes, have the highest survival ratio (Standard rate of incidence/Standard rate of mortality).

[Trends in urologic neoplasm mortality and incidence (prostate, bladder, and kidney). Soria, 1950-1988].

The mortality rate for urological tumors in the province of Soria, Spain, was recorded from 1950 to 1988, as well as its incidence for the period 1981-1988. We classified data according to sex, age groups, tumor site and type, and patient residence (urban/rural). Rates were adjusted for the foregoing parameters and decades (1950-1959, 1960-1969, 1970-1979, 1980-1988) and compared with those of other national and international registries. Prostate, bladder and kidney tumors in men showed an increased mortality rate for the period 1950-1988 which was statistically significant (p less than 0.01), whereas the female mortality rate for this period hardly changed and remained very low. A higher risk potential was observed for bladder tumors for the urban than for the rural areas, with a significant difference for mortality and incidence for both sexes (p less than 0.01). There was also a higher incidence for tumors of the prostate in the urban areas (p less than 0.01). Like most registries, there was a prevalence of bladder tumors in males, in both areas, in mortality and incidence (p less than 0.01). Comparison with other national registries show our mortality and incidence rates are lower for both sexes. Comparison with international registries show this province has a medium-low risk for prostatic tumors and medium risk for bladder tumors in males and females. The risk potential for renal tumors could not be compared objectively. The incidence/mortality ratio (I/M) (adjusted rates) shows prognosis is good for bladder tumors (better in women than in men), poor for prostatic tumors, and bad for renal tumors.
