Abstract
[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in Zhejiang cancer registration areas in 2021 and trends from 2000 to 2021.[Methods]Based on cancer data from 22 registries across Zhejiang Province between 2000 and 2021,the crude incidence/mortality rates,age-standardized incidence/mortality rates of thyroid cancer by Chinese and world standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC,ASIRW/ASMRW),cumulative rate(0~74 years old)and truncated rate(35~64 years old)were analyzed.Joinpoint regression model was employed to calculate the annual percentage change(APC)and average annual percentage change(AAPC)with 95%confidence in-terval(CI)for analyzing trends of thyroid cancer incidence and mortality rates from 2000 to 2021.[Results]The crude incidence rate of thyroid cancer increased from 3.62/105 in 2000 to 79.66/105 in 2021,and ASIRC rose from 3.11/105 to 69.49/105(AAPC=15.55%,95%CI:14.65%~16.61%).The AAPC for ASIRC was slightly higher in female(15.54%,95%CI:14.71%~16.49%)than that in male(15.02%,95%CI:13.53%~16.82%).The increase was significantly more pronounced in rural areas(AAPC=23.34%,95%CI:21.48%~25.33%)compared to urban areas(AAPC=14.12%,95%CI:13.15%~15.43%).Among age groups,the age group of 15~44 years old showed the fastest increase in crude incidence rate(AAPC=20.37%,95%CI:18.46%~22.31%),followed by the age group of 45~64 years old(AAPC=18.41%,95%CI:16.65%~20.19%).Between 2000 and 2021,the crude mortality rate of thyroid cancer rose from 0.34/105 to 0.56/105(AAPC=5.52%,95%CI:3.45%~7.70%),the trend of ASMRC was relatively stable.[Conclusion]From 2000 to 2021,the incidence of thyroid cancer in Zhejiang Province increased markedly,especially among females and younger to middle-aged adults,while the age-standardized mortality rate remained stable.
