The rate of breast cancer deaths in the U.S. has dramatically declined since 1950. As of 2023, the death rate from breast cancer was **** per 100,000 population. However, cancer is a serious public health issue in the United States and is the second leading cause of death among women. Breast cancer incidence Breast cancer symptoms include lumps or thickening of the breast tissue and may include changes to the skin. Breast cancer is driven by many factors, but age is a known risk factor. Among all age groups, the highest number of invasive breast cancer cases were among those aged 60 to 69. The incidence rate of new breast cancer cases is higher in some ethnicities than others. White, non-Hispanic women have the highest incidence rate of breast cancer, followed by non-Hispanic Black women. Breast cancer treatment Breast cancer treatments usually involve several methods, including surgery, chemotherapy and biological therapy. Types of cancer diagnosed at earlier stages often require fewer treatments. A majority of early stage breast cancer cases in the U.S. receive breast conserving surgery and radiation therapy.

BackgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older postmenopausal women. The impact of postmenopausal breast cancer on CVD for older women is uncertain. We hypothesized that older postmenopausal women with breast cancer would be at a higher risk of CVD than similar aged women without breast cancer and that CVD would be a major contributor to the subsequent morbidity and mortality.MethodsIn a prospective Women’s Health Initiative study, incident CVD events and total and cause-specific death rates were compared between postmenopausal women with (n = 4,340) and without (n = 97,576) incident invasive breast cancer over 10 years post-diagnosis, stratified by 3 age groups (50–59, 60–69, and 70–79).ResultsPostmenopausal women, regardless of breast cancer diagnosis, had similar and high levels of CVD risk factors (e.g., smoking and hypertension) at baseline prior to breast cancer, which were strong predictors of CVD and total mortality over time. CVD affected mostly women age 70–79 with localized breast cancer (79% of breast cancer cases in 70–79 age group): only 17% died from breast cancer and CVD was the leading cause of death (22%) over the average 10 years follow up. Compared to age-matched women without breast cancer, women age 70–79 at diagnosis of localized breast cancer had a similar multivariate-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 1.01 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.76–1.33) for coronary heart disease, a lower risk of composite CVD (HR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.70–1.00), and a higher risk of total mortality (HR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.04–1.39).ConclusionCVD was a major contributor to mortality in women with localized breast cancer at age 70–79. Further studies are needed to evaluate both screening and treatment of localized breast cancer tailored to the specific health issues of older women.

BackgroundBreast cancer is a leading global health challenge, exhibiting significant regional disparities in incidence, mortality, and survival outcomes. This study analyzed the burden of breast cancer in 2022 and projects its future impact by 2050 using GLOBOCAN data.MethodsIncidence and mortality data for breast cancer from 2022 were analyzed across continents, age group, HDI and countries categories. The Average Annual Percent Change (AAPC) from 2018 to 2022 was calculated to project cases and deaths for 2050. Mortality-to-Incidence Ratios (MIR) were computed to assess survival disparities.ResultsIn 2022, Asia accounted for the highest breast cancer incidence (985,817 cases), followed by Europe (557,532) and Northern America (306,307). Africa recorded the highest mortality-to-incidence ratio (MIR) of 0.510, highlighting challenges in early detection and treatment. By 2050, global breast cancer cases are projected to exceed 6 million, with Asia, experiencing the most significant rise (2.0 million cases) followed by Africa (1.118 million cases), followed by. Mortality is expected to rise proportionally, with Asia (484,468) and Africa (390,695 deaths) and bearing the largest burden. The MIR for 2050 shows marked disparities, with Africa (0.35) and Asia (0.25) remaining elevated compared to Europe (0.20) and Northern America (0.13).ConclusionThe projected rise in breast cancer incidence and mortality highlights the urgent need for region-specific interventions. Targeted strategies focusing on early detection, improved access to treatment, and reduction of modifiable risk factors are essential, particularly in transitioning economies where disparities remain stark.

Deaths from breast cancer in females registered in the calendar year, directly standardized by age group, given as a rate per 100,000 registered female patients.

BackgroundThis nationwide study examined breast cancer (BC) incidence and mortality rates in Hungary between 2011–2019, and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the incidence and mortality rates in 2020 using the databases of the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) and Central Statistical Office (CSO) of Hungary.MethodsOur nationwide, retrospective study included patients who were newly diagnosed with breast cancer (International Codes of Diseases ICD)-10 C50) between Jan 1, 2011 and Dec 31, 2020. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates (ASRs) were calculated using European Standard Populations (ESP).Results7,729 to 8,233 new breast cancer cases were recorded in the NHIF database annually, and 3,550 to 4,909 all-cause deaths occurred within BC population per year during 2011-2019 period, while 2,096 to 2,223 breast cancer cause-specific death was recorded (CSO). Age-standardized incidence rates varied between 116.73 and 106.16/100,000 PYs, showing a mean annual change of -0.7% (95% CI: -1.21%–0.16%) and a total change of -5.41% (95% CI: -9.24 to -1.32). Age-standardized mortality rates varied between 26.65–24.97/100,000 PYs (mean annual change: -0.58%; 95% CI: -1.31–0.27%; p=0.101; total change: -5.98%; 95% CI: -13.36–2.66). Age-specific incidence rates significantly decreased between 2011 and 2019 in women aged 50–59, 60–69, 80–89, and ≥90 years (-8.22%, -14.28%, -9.14%, and -36.22%, respectively), while it increased in young females by 30.02% (95%CI 17,01%- 51,97%) during the same period. From 2019 to 2020 (in first COVID-19 pandemic year), breast cancer incidence nominally decreased by 12% (incidence rate ratio [RR]: 0.88; 95% CI: 0.69–1.13; 2020 vs. 2019), all-cause mortality nominally increased by 6% (RR: 1.06; 95% CI: 0.79–1.43) among breast cancer patients, and cause-specific mortality did not change (RR: 1.00; 95%CI: 0.86–1.15).ConclusionThe incidence of breast cancer significantly decreased in older age groups (≥50 years), oppositely increased among young females between 2011 and 2019, while cause-specific mortality in breast cancer patients showed a non-significant decrease. In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic resulted in a nominal, but not statistically significant, 12% decrease in breast cancer incidence, with no significant increase in cause-specific breast cancer mortality observed during 2020.

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the most frequent cause for cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. Globally, breast cancer accounted for 2.08 million out of 18.08 million new cancer cases (incidence rate of 11.6%) and 626,679 out of 9.55 million cancer-related deaths (6.6% of all cancer-related deaths) in 2018. 1,2 In India, breast cancer has surpassed cancers of the cervix and the oral cavity to be the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer deaths. In 2018, 159,500 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed, representing 27.7% of all new cancers among Indian women and 11.1% of all cancer deaths.

In india breast cancer cases reporting and diagnotics have increased 10 times in past 3 years . All thanks to the various cancer awareness initiatives by both private and govt. organisations.

Source: Cancer Registry Database, HPA. Note: 1. The observed survival rate indicates the proportion of patients who were diagnosed with cancer at a given time and are alive at a certain point in time after diagnosis. All deaths are considered in this calculation regardless of cause, which reflects total mortality in the group of patients, not just that attributable solely to cancer. 2. Cumulative relative survival (%), which expresses the probability of cancer survival after adjustment for competing causes of death, was estimated as the ratio of observed to expected survival. Observed survival was based on deaths from all causes. Expected survival was based on cases only to the age-, year- and sex-specific mortalities observed in the general population (comparable group).

The U.S. states are divided into groups based on the rates at which women developed or died from breast cancer in 2013, which is the most recent year for which incidence data are available.

This data package contains information on cancer its type, its occurrence by age, type and site. It also provides detailed data on adult and childhood cancer survival rates and deaths caused by breast cancer in females.

What are Cancer Statistics in US States?

The circled group of good survivors has genetic indicators of poor survivors (i.e. low ESR1 levels, which is typically the prognostic indicator of poor outcomes in breast cancer) – understanding this group could be critical for helping improve mortality rates for this disease. Why this group survived was quickly analysed by using the Outcome Column (here Event Death - which is binary - 0,1) as a Data Lens (which we term Supervised vs Unsupervised analyses).

How to use this dataset

• A network was built using only gene expression with 272 breast cancer patients (as rows), and 1570 columns.

• Metadata includes patient info, treatment, and survival.

• Each node is a group of patients similar to each other. Flares (left) represent sub-populations that are distinct from the larger population. (One differentiating factor between the two flares is estrogen expression (low = top flare, high = bottom flare)).

• A bottom flare is a group of patients with 100% survival. The top flare shows a range of survival – very poor towards the tip (red), and very good near the base (circled).

Background Increased BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline mutation rates have been reported in Ashkenazi Jewish women in North America, Europe and Israel, and have been mentioned as possibly related to a higher incidence of breast and ovarian cancer among these communities. The present study was carried out with the aim of obtaining evidence on the magnitude of breast cancer as a cause of death among Ashkenazi women in Brazil. Methods We reviewed all death certificates archived in the Jewish Burial Societies of São Paulo (1971-1997) and Porto Alegre (1948-1997), two of the main and oldest Jewish communities in Brazil. Breast cancer observed deaths were compared with expected deaths according to breast cancer mortality in the general population. Results The observed ratios were approximately quite close to unity, suggesting a similar breast cancer mortality pattern among the Ashkenazi population and the general population in both cities. These results maintain similar behavior regardless of whether analyzed before or after the mid-1980s, when mammography came to be increasingly performed in Brazil. Cancer proportional mortality ratios were 1.04 (0.83-1.29) in São Paulo and 1.16 (0.84-1.57) in Porto Alegre before 1985, and 1.17 (1.00-1.44) and 1.21 (0.81-1.79), respectively, between 1985 and 1997. Some evidence of the maintenance of protective risk factors such as high parity has been observed among Ashkenazi women in São Paulo. Conclusion A quite similar breast cancer mortality pattern was observed between Ashkenazi Jewish women and the general population in São Paulo and Porto Alegre, Brazil. These results may suggest an environmental role on germ mutation expression reported in this ethnic group.

Abstract Introduction Despite the preventive actions, breast cancer (BC) in Brazil has a high mortality, probably due to the identification of the tumor in advanced stages. Objective To analyze mortality from BC in the health micro-regions of Minas Gerais (MG), 2013-2017, and its possible association with social inequality. Method Ecological study, whose unit of analysis was the health micro-regions of MG. Mortality, sociodemographic and health data were extracted from SIM, IBGE, PROADESS, and DATASUS. Specific and age-standardized mortality rates were calculated, thematic maps were constructed, and statistical analyzes were performed using the Moran Index and multiple simple regression. Results From 2013-2017 there were 7,571 deaths from BC in MG. The deadliest microregions are in the Center and East; the smallest in the North and Northeast. Most variables had a high coefficient of variation and were significant in the simple linear regression model. In the multiple distal and proximal models, only the degree of urbanization was significant. All variables showed significant spatial autocorrelation and spatial dependence. Conclusion High mortality rates in the most urbanized micro-regions can be explained by reproductive, behavioral factors and the distribution of health resources, present in large urban centers.

The file contains separate sheets that provide pertinent metadata for assessing the incidence and mortality rates of breast cancer based on various factors such as time, gender, region, country, and socio-demographic index (SDI).
