AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Background: This article presents a first look at rates and trends for cases in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program diagnosed through 2013 using the February 2015 submission, and a validation of rates and trends from the February 2014 submission using the subsequent November 2014 submission. To the authors' knowledge, this is the second time SEER has published trends based on the early February submission. Three new cancer sites were added: cervix, thyroid, and liver/ intrahepatic bile duct.
Methods: A reporting delay model adjusted for the undercount of cases, which is substantially larger for the February than the subsequent November submission, was used. Joinpoint regression methodology was used to assess trends. Delay-adjusted rates and trends were checked to assess validity between the February and November 2014 submissions.
Results: The validation of rates and trends from the February and November 2014 submissions demonstrated even better agreement than the previously reported comparison between the February and November 2013 submissions, thereby affording additional confidence that the delay-adjusted February submission data can be used to produce valid estimates of incidence trends. Trends for cases diagnosed through 2013 revealed more rapid declines in female colon and rectal cancer and prostate cancer. A plateau in female melanoma trends and a slowing of the increases in thyroid cancer and male liver/intrahepatic bile duct cancer trends were observed.
Conclusions: Analysis of early cancer data submissions can provide a preliminary indication of differences in incidence trends with an additional year of data. Although the delay adjustment correction adjusts for underreporting of cases, caution should be exercised when interpreting the results in this early submission.

Long-term trends and comparison of the burden of lower respiratory tract infections in China and globally from 1990 to 2021: an analysis based on the Global Burden of Disease study 2021.
Front Public Health
December 2024
Department of Critical Care Medicine, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital, Tianjin, China.
Background: This study aimed to describe the temporal trends in the age and sex burdens of lower respiratory infections (LRIs) in China and globally from 1990 to 2021 and to analyze their epidemiological characteristics to formulate corresponding strategies to control LRIs.
Methods: This study utilized open data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database from 1990 to 2021 to assess the burden of disease based on the prevalence, incidence, mortality, years lost (YLLs), years lived with disability (YLDs), and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) of LRIs in China and globally. Moreover, a comprehensive comparative analysis of the epidemiological characteristics of LRIs in China and globally was conducted via the Joinpoint regression model, age-period-cohort model (APC model), and stratified analysis of the study method from multiple dimensions, such as age, sex, and period.
Trends and levels of the global, regional, and national burden of pulmonary arterial hypertension from 1990 to 2021: findings from the global burden of disease study 2021.

Department of Geriatrics, The Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China.
Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe and progressive lung disease that significantly impairs patients' health and imposes heavy clinical and economic burdens. Currently, there is a lack of comprehensive epidemiological analysis on the global burden and trends of PAH.
Methods: We estimated the prevalence, mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of PAH from 1990 to 2021 using the results of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD).

Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous malignancy with multiple histological subtypes, showing global variability in incidence. Temporal changes in diagnostic criteria and risk factors might influence the incidence and distribution of OC and its subtypes.
Methods: This study analyzed incidence patterns (2013-2017) and trends (1988-1992 to 2013-2017) of OC and its subtypes across 65 and 40 countries, respectively.

Background: Neuroblastoma is the most prevalent extracranial solid tumor in pediatric populations worldwide, representing 8-10% of childhood malignancies and contributing to approximately 15% of pediatric cancer-related fatalities. This study aims to report global trends in the incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of childhood neuroblastoma from 1990 to 2021.
Methods: The study utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database to analyze neuroblastoma incidence, mortality, and DALYs in children aged 0-14 years.

Introduction: following the detection of vaccine-derived poliovirus in 2019 in Ethiopia, response activities have been conducted including strengthening disease surveillance activities.
Methods: trend analysis study design of acute flaccid paralysis and measles surveillance data for the years 2021 and 2022 for Southwest Ethiopia Region was used. The non-polio acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) rate and stool adequacy rates were used to assess the AFP surveillance.
