Book Description
Ten per cent of cancers develop in young adults aged 20-44. Approximately 20% of young men and women who contract cancer die from it; 80% are survivors with all the attendant difficulties of diagnosis and treatment in their most productive years. It is therefore essential to discover why certain types of cancer are increasing and others decreasing in incidence, and to identify environmental and other factors contributing to these changes. This descriptive epidemiological report identifies cancer trends between 1983 and 1999 in this age group.

De telles données chronologiques sur l'incidence du cancer et sur la mortalité due à cette maladie servent à effectuer de la recherche en étiologie, à élaborer et évaluer des programmes d'intervention et à planifier des services de santé. Cette publication constituera un outil de référence précieux pour les épidémologistes, les statisticiens oeuvrant dans le domaine de la santé et toutes les personnes et organisations s'intéressant à cette maladie.
