Article Synopsis
- - The study indicates a projected increase in breast cancer deaths globally, forecasting 1.04 million deaths by 2040, including 2,380 in Kazakhstan, due to demographic changes.
- - Over a decade (2009-2018), 12,958 women died from breast cancer, with the average age at death being 61.6 years, and peak mortality rates observed in the 70-84 age group.
- - Despite a strong downward trend in age-standardized mortality rates, attributed to improved access to mammography and treatment, certain regions like Pavlodar, Almaty, and Astana still report high mortality rates.
Objective: The study is to conduct a component analysis of the dynamics of the incidence of BC (BC) in Kazakhstan, taking into account regions.
Methods: Primary data were for registered patients with BC (ICD 10 - C50) in the whole country during the period of 2009-2018. Evaluation of changes in BC incidence in the population of Kazakhstan was performed using component analysis according to the methodological recommendations.
Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignant disease among the female population of Kazakhstan like in many developed countries of the world (Canada, UK, US, Western Europe), and it accounts for every 5 tumor. We aimed to assess the epidemiological aspects of breast cancer incidence and mortality among Almaty and Astana (Now Nur-Sultan), Kazakhstan residents in 2009-2018.
Methods: A retrospective study using modern descriptive and analytical methods of epidemiology was conducted to evaluate the breast cancer incidence and mortality in megapolises of Kazakhstan.
