- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600300001Description: 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.Release date: 2026-03-18
- 2. Age-specific patterns in the incidence of, and survival from, pancreatic cancer in Canada ArchivedStats in brief: 82-624-X201700114799Description:
This article examines age-specific patterns in the national rates of newly diagnosed cases of pancreatic cancer. Age-specific measures of survival from pancreatic cancer are also examined.
Release date: 2017-04-26 - 3. Epilepsy in Canada: Prevalence and impact ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X201600914654Description:
This study examines the prevalence of epilepsy in Canada among people in long-term care facilities, based on the Survey of Neurological Conditions in Institutions in Canada, and among residents of private households, based on the Canadian Community Health Survey Neurological Conditions Prevalence File. In-depth information from the Survey on Living with Neurological Conditions in Canada is presented for household residents aged 15 or older.
Release date: 2016-09-21 - Stats in brief: 82-624-X201600114637Description:
This article highlights work that is being done to create laboratory reference ranges for substances measured in blood that are specific for the Canadian population. Results for two laboratory tests are presented to illustrate how reference ranges are created and how age and/or sex can influence normal values in a healthy population. This article uses data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey (2007–2011).
Release date: 2016-06-27 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600614635Description:
The 2006 Participation and Activity Limitation Survey was used to study relationships between a child’s diagnosis status (autism spectrum disorders versus other neurodevelopmental diagnoses), a range of functional characteristics that were largely neurodevelopmental or psychological, and measures of childand family health and well-being.
Release date: 2016-06-15 - 6. Prostate cancer trends in Canada, 1995 to 2012 ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-624-X201600114548Description:
This article presents national data on the annual rates of newly diagnosed cases of prostate cancer (incidence) and deaths due to this cancer (mortality) from 1995 to 2012. Trends in rates are presented for all ages combined and by age groups. The age distribution of both prostate cancer incidence and mortality in 2012 is compared to corresponding data from 1995.
Release date: 2016-04-25 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201501214295Description:
Using the Wisconsin Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Monitoring Network breast cancer simulation model adapted to the Canadian context, costs and quality-adjusted life years were evaluated for 11 mammography screening strategies that varied by start/stop age and screening frequency for the general population. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios are presented, and sensitivity analyses are used to assess the robustness of model conclusions.
Release date: 2015-12-16 - Articles and reports: 82-624-X201500114213Description:
This article highlights national data on the number of newly diagnosed cases of childhood cancer (incidence) and the number of deaths attributed to cancer (mortality) in children under the age of 15. Incidence data are explored by age, sex and the five most commonly diagnosed groups of childhood cancer. Due to the low number of cancer cases, five years of data, between 2006 and 2010, were combined to report the most recent results.
Release date: 2015-09-22 - 9. Ovarian Cancer: Survival statistics ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-624-X201500114212Description:
This article presents relative survival ratios for ovarian cancer at the national level. Data from the Canadian Cancer Registry are used to estimate ratios for one, five and ten year survival, by age at diagnosis and over time.
The time period is from 1992—1994 to 2006—2008.
Release date: 2015-09-10 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201401114112Description:
This study provides estimates of the prevalence of Parkinson’s disease, the time from symptom onset to diagnosis, the social, financial and physical impacts, and the characteristics of caregivers.
