Sex differences in muscle-invasive bladder cancers: A study of a French regional population.

Objectives: Although men have a higher risk of developing a bladder cancer, women appear to have a poorer prognosis and a more advanced stage at diagnosis. We performed a retrospective population-based study on muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) using data from a cancer registry in a French department to compare overall and specific survival data according to sex.

Material And Methods: We included all patients living in the department of Hérault and diagnosed with MIBC between January 1, 2017 and December 12, 2019.

Incidence of lung and human papilloma virus-associated malignancies in HIV-infected patients.

Objective: Cancers represent one of the leading cause of mortality/morbidity in patients with HIV (PWH) in industrialized countries. The objective of our study was to compare incidence of lung and human papilloma virus (HPV)-related cancers among PWH with general population over the 2010-2017 period.

Design: Prospective and multicenter cohort study.

Management of colon cancer patients: A comprehensive analysis of the absence of multidisciplinary team meetings in two French departments.

Background: The care management of colorectal cancers has evolved, particularly since the implementation of multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTm). The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with the non-presentation of colon cancer patients in MDTm (no-MDTm) and to assess the association between no-MDTm and the diagnostic and therapeutic care management, in two areas in France, in 2010.

Methods: Patients over 18 years diagnosed for invasive colon cancer in Gironde and Tarn during 2010 were included from the cancer registries of these two departments.
