1. Geographic variation in female breast cancer incidence and mortality in Canada
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500001
Description: Previous research has found variability in cancer incidence and cancer-related outcomes according to place of residence. This study examined geographic variability in the incidence and mortality of breast cancer among females in Canada, using data from the 2021 Canadian Cancer Registry (breast cancer incidence) and the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death database (breast cancer mortality). Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) and age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) per 100,000 females per year and their rate ratios were calculated, as well as age group-specific and age-standardized stage-specific incidence rates, and examined across provinces and territories, community sizes, and peer groups (i.e., clusters of health regions with similar socioeconomic and demographic characteristics).

2. Enhancing the OncoSim-Breast model using Canadian breast density information
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500002
Description: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in Canada. Breast density substantially influences breast cancer risk and mammography performance. However, OncoSim-Breast, a Canadian microsimulation model representing breast cancer control, including cancer onset, screening, and survival, has not previously explicitly accounted for breast density. This study describes the incorporation of density-specific parameters—prevalence, relative risk of breast cancer, and digital mammography performance (sensitivity and specificity)—using data from five Canadian provinces, into the OncoSim-Breast model. Calibration experiments and internal validations were conducted to ensure the updated OncoSim-Breast model aligned with observed data from the Canadian Cancer Registry.

4. Assessing obesity beyond body mass index: Integrating physiological and functional indicators of impairment in national health surveillance
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600300001
Description: Body mass index (BMI) is commonly used to estimate obesity prevalence; however, reliance on BMI alone can lead to an incomplete understanding of obesity’s impact on health. In line with the 2025 recommendations of the Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology Commission, this study used measured and self-reported data from the 2016 to 2019 Canadian Health Measures Survey to combine population-level measures of excess adiposity with indicators of physiological dysfunction and activity limitation across eight body system domains. Clinical and preclinical obesity were characterized by excess adiposity and progressive obesity-related impairment among Canadian adults.

7. The OncoSim-Cervix cancer microsimulation model: Unveiling roll-out strategies for human papillomavirus primary testing
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202501000002
Description: Globally, cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers, yet it is largely preventable. Switching methods for primary screening from cytology testing, via Pap test, to human papillomavirus (HPV) testing is a component of that prevention. OncoSim-Cervix, a Canadian cervical cancer microsimulation model, assesses the long-term effects of HPV vaccination and screening interventions. This study projects the impact of differing roll-out strategies for HPV primary testing for cervical cancer screening in Canada.

MetS is an important contributor to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Research indicates that MetS doubles the risk of cardiovascular disease and increases the risk of diabetes fivefold. Using the most recent nationally representative data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey, this study provides an updated prevalence of MetS and its components among Canadian adults aged 18 to 79 years by age group and sex.
