Abstract:
Objective To analyze the birth order of gastric cancer patients in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital,and to explore the relationship between environmental factors,genetic factors and gastric cancer.Methods The Greenwood and Yule,Haldane and Smith birth order methods were used to conduct an epidemiological investigation on 554 patients with gastric cancer surgery from January 2004 to December 2007 in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital,and the birth order of their siblings was studied.Results Results from the Greenwood and Yule method showed that there was a tendency for patients with gastric cancer in birth order first to third.However,the Haldane and Smith method showed that the results were quite different between actual value and the average theory value of 6A [6A(actual value)=7 644,(x)6A(average theory value)=8 511,x=|6A-(x)6A|/√v6A=4.86,x＞2,P <0.01] which suggested that the birth order had some effects on the occurrence of gastric cancer.In addition,the actual value of 6A was lower than theoretic average value,and the parents at younger productive age or baby at the first birth was easy to develop gastric cancer.Conclusions Gastric cancer patients in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital is related with the birth order,especially at early order.There are certain effects of environmental risk factors on gastric cancer.
