This publication reports on newly diagnosed cancers registered in England during 2022. It includes this summary report showing key findings, spreadsheet tables with more detailed estimates, and a methodology document. Cancer registration estimates are provided for: • Incidence of cancer using groupings that incorporate both the location and type of cancer by combinations of gender, age, deprivation, and stage at diagnosis (where appropriate) for England, former Government office regions, Cancer alliances and Integrated care boards • Incidence and mortality (using ICD-10 3-digit codes) by gender and age group for England, former Government office regions, Cancer alliances and Integrated care boards This publication will report on 2022 cancer registrations only, trends will not be reported as the required re-stated populations for 2012 to 2020 are not expected to be published by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) until Winter 2024.

TwitterTurks and Caicos Islands saw a murder rate of ***** per 100,000 inhabitants, making it the most dangerous country for this kind of crime worldwide as of 2024. Interestingly, El Salvador, which long had the highest global homicide rates, has dropped out of the top 29 after a high number of gang members have been incarcerated. Meanwhile, Colima in Mexico was the most dangerous city for murders. Violent conflicts worldwide Notably, these figures do not include deaths that resulted from war or a violent conflict. While there is a persistent number of conflicts worldwide, resulting casualties are not considered murders. Partially due to this reason, homicide rates in Latin America are higher than those in Afghanistan or Syria. A different definition of murder in these circumstances could change the rate significantly in some countries. Causes of death Also, noteworthy is that murders are usually not random events. In the United States, the circumstances of murders are most commonly arguments, followed by narcotics incidents and robberies. Additionally, murders are not a leading cause of death. Heart diseases, strokes and cancer pose a greater threat to life than violent crime.

BackgroundTea consumption has been associations with a lower risk of mortality and numerous health benefits. However, it is still unclear whether consuming tea with or without sugar or sweeteners has different effects on mortality. It is necessary to investigate the associations of unsweetened, sugar-sweetened, and artificially sweetened tea consumption with all-cause mortality and cause-specific mortality.MethodsIn this population-based cohort study of 195,361 UK Biobank participants who completed at least one 24-h dietary recall, we examined tea consumption by type (unsweetened, sugar-sweetened, artificially sweetened). Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic splines were used to assess nonlinear associations between tea intake and the risks of all-cause, cancer, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. We also conducted subgroup analyses stratified by genetic score for caffeine metabolism.ResultsAfter a median follow-up of 13.6 years, 11,718 all-cause deaths were recorded, including 2,202 deaths from CVD and 6,415 from cancer. A U-shaped association was observed between tea consumption and mortality risk. Compared with non-consumers, individuals consuming 3.5–4.5 drinks per day of unsweetened tea had the lowest risks of all-cause (HR, 0.80; 95% CI: 0.75–0.86), cancer (HR, 0.86; 95% CI: 0.77–0.97), and CVD (HR, 0.73; 95% CI: 0.60–0.89). Sugar-sweetened tea showed no consistent or statistically significant associations with all-cause, cancer, or CVD mortality across different levels of consumption. Similarly, no significant associations were found for artificially sweetened tea. The observed associations between tea consumption and mortality were not modified by genetic predisposition to caffeine metabolism.ConclusionUnsweetened tea consumption was significantly associated with a lower risk of all-cause, cancer, and CVD mortality. No consistent or statistically significant associations were observed for sugar-sweetened or artificially sweetened tea. The potential attenuation of tea’s protective effects by added sugar or artificial sweeteners warrants further investigation. Given current evidence, it may be advisable to consume tea without added sweeteners to optimize health benefits and longevity.

Breast tumor metastasis is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Breast tumor cells frequently metastasize to brain and initiate severe therapeutic complications. The chances of brain metastasis are further elevated in patients with HER2 overexpression. In the current study, we evaluated the anti-metastatic effects of phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) in a novel murine model of breast tumor metastasis. The MDA-MB-231-BR (BR-brain seeking) breast tumor cells stably transfected with luciferase were injected into the left ventricle of mouse heart and the migration of cells to brain was monitored using a non-invasive IVIS bio-luminescent imaging system. In order to study the efficacy of PEITC in preventing the number of tumor cells migrating to brain, mice were given 10 µmol PEITC by oral gavage for ten days prior to intra-cardiac injection of tumor cells labeled with quantum dots. To evaluate the tumor growth suppressive effects, 10 µmol PEITC was given to mice every day starting 14th day after intra-cardiac cell injection. Based on the presence of quantum dots in the brain section of control and treated mice, our results reveal that PEITC significantly prevented the metastasis of breast cancer cells to brain. Our results demonstrate that the growth of metastatic brain tumors in PEITC treated mice was about 50% less than that of control. According to Kaplan Meir’s curve, median survival of tumor bearing mice treated with PEITC was prolonged by 20.5%. Furthermore as compared to controls, we observed reduced HER2, EGFR and VEGF expression in the brain sections of PEITC treated mice. To the best of our knowledge, our study for the first time demonstrates the anti-metastatic effects of PEITC in vivo in a novel breast tumor metastasis model and provides the rationale for further clinical investigation.
