- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300900002Description: According to recent Canadian estimates, over two in five Canadians will likely develop cancer in their lifetime, and one in four is expected to die of it. The lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer are useful summary statistics that describe the impact of cancer within a population. However, there is little information on how lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer have changed over time. This study aims to present detailed lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer by sex and cancer type, and to describe changes in these lifetime probabilities over time among the Canadian population.Release date: 2023-09-20
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200300002Description:
This study presents detailed tumour-based cancer prevalence estimates in Canada by sex, age group, cancer type and prevalence duration as of January 1, 2018.
Release date: 2022-03-16 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X202100800001Description:
Cancer incidence rates have been shown to vary by ethnicity, and the increasing awareness of and interest in reporting ethnic health inequalities have been growing internationally. The objective of this study was to assess cancer incidence and mortality rates by ethnicity in Canada. The study used the 2006 Canadian Census Health and Environment Cohort, linked to the Canadian Cancer Registry and the Canadian Vital Statistics-Death Database, to determine cancer cases and mortality from 2006 to 2016. Ethnicity was categorized as non-Indigenous North American (NINA); European; Caribbean; Latin, Central and South American (LCSA); African; East Asian; South Asian; and West Central Asian and Middle Eastern.
Release date: 2021-08-18 - 4. Changing trends in thyroid cancer incidence in Canada: A histologic examination, 1992 to 2016 ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X202000100002Description:
Using data from the Canadian Cancer Registry, this study examines thyroid cancer (TC) incidence from 1992 to 2016. It presents sex-specific incidence estimates according to age, histology and province for the most recent five-year period (2012 to 2016), and examines changes in rates over the entire period. These findings are supplemented with similar information on TC mortality and five-year net survival.
Release date: 2020-01-15 - 5. Cancer in Canada: Stage at diagnosis ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X201801200003Description:
This study presents cancer incidence by stage at diagnosis for the top four cancers, using data from the Canadian Cancer Registry for the combined period of 2011 to 2015.
Release date: 2018-12-19 - 6. The health of girls and women in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201500114324Description:
This chapter of Women in Canada presents a life course perspective of the physical, mental and social health of girls and women in Canada. It is intended to provide a summary of various aspects of women’s health, based on available recent survey and administrative data, as well as findings from published research papers and reports. It begins with a general overview of female health in Canada - with a look at the social determinants of health and the health of women who are immigrants to Canada - followed by four sections that describe female health in childhood, in adolescence, in adulthood, and at older ages. Each of these sections includes information on various health behaviours, disease and chronic conditions, and mental health. Sexual activity and reproduction are also examined, beginning in adolescence.
Release date: 2016-03-08 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100211425Geography: CanadaDescription:
Using records from the Canadian Cancer Registry linked to the Canadian Vital Statistics Death Database, five-year conditional relative survival ratio estimates were derived for a large number of cancers.
Release date: 2011-04-20 - 8. Breast cancer incidence and neighbourhood income ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X201100211426Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines the association between neighbourhood income and the diagnosis of female breast cancer. Population data from the Canadian Cancer Registry were used to calculate national age-specific and age-standardized rates of breast cancer from 1992 through 2004 by neighbourhood income quintile and region.
