International trends in incidence of cervical cancer: II. Squamous-cell carcinoma.

Time trends in the incidence of squamous-cell carcinomas of the cervix during the period 1973-1991 were examined using data provided by 60 population-based cancer registries from 32 defined populations in 25 countries. Three components of the incidence trend were studied: age, calendar period of diagnosis and birth cohort. Cumulative incidence rates per 1,000 person-years for 2 groups, age ranges 25-49 and 50-74 years, were calculated from the model that best described the incidence data.

International trends in the incidence of cervical cancer: I. Adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous cell carcinomas.

Time trends in the incidence of cervical adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous cell carcinomas during the period 1973-1991 were examined using data provided by 60 population-based cancer registries from 32 defined populations in 25 countries. Three components of the incidence trend were studied: age, calendar period of diagnosis and birth cohort. Cumulative incidence rates per 1,000 for 2 groups with age ranges 25-49 and 50-74 years were calculated from the model that best described the incidence data.
