This dataset contains data about lung cancer Mortality. This database is a comprehensive collection of patient information, specifically focused on individuals diagnosed with cancer. It is designed to facilitate the analysis of various factors that may influence cancer prognosis and treatment outcomes. The database includes a range of demographic, medical, and treatment-related variables, capturing essential details about each patient's condition and history.

Key components of the database include:

Demographic Information: Basic details about the patients such as age, gender, and country of residence. This helps in understanding the distribution of cancer cases across different populations and regions.

Medical History: Information about each patient’s medical background, including family history of cancer, smoking status, Body Mass Index (BMI), cholesterol levels, and the presence of other health conditions such as hypertension, asthma, cirrhosis, and other cancers. This section is crucial for identifying potential risk factors and comorbidities.

Cancer Diagnosis: Detailed data about the cancer diagnosis itself, including the date of diagnosis and the stage of cancer at the time of diagnosis. This helps in tracking the progression and severity of the disease.

Treatment Details: Information regarding the type of treatment each patient received, the end date of the treatment, and the outcome (whether the patient survived or not). This is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of different treatment approaches.

The structure of the database allows for in-depth analysis and research, making it possible to identify patterns, correlations, and potential causal relationships between various factors and cancer outcomes. It is a valuable resource for medical researchers, epidemiologists, and healthcare providers aiming to improve cancer treatment and patient care.

id: A unique identifier for each patient in the dataset. age: The age of the patient at the time of diagnosis. gender: The gender of the patient (e.g., male, female). country: The country or region where the patient resides. diagnosis_date: The date on which the patient was diagnosed with lung cancer. cancer_stage: The stage of lung cancer at the time of diagnosis (e.g., Stage I, Stage II, Stage III, Stage IV). family_history: Indicates whether there is a family history of cancer (e.g., yes, no). smoking_status: The smoking status of the patient (e.g., current smoker, former smoker, never smoked, passive smoker). bmi: The Body Mass Index of the patient at the time of diagnosis. cholesterol_level: The cholesterol level of the patient (value). hypertension: Indicates whether the patient has hypertension (high blood pressure) (e.g., yes, no). asthma: Indicates whether the patient has asthma (e.g., yes, no). cirrhosis: Indicates whether the patient has cirrhosis of the liver (e.g., yes, no). other_cancer: Indicates whether the patient has had any other type of cancer in addition to the primary diagnosis (e.g., yes, no). treatment_type: The type of treatment the patient received (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, combined). end_treatment_date: The date on which the patient completed their cancer treatment or died. survived: Indicates whether the patient survived (e.g., yes, no).

This dataset contains artificially generated data with as close a representation of reality as possible. This data is free to use without any licence required.

Good luck Gakusei!

In the following maps, the U.S. states are divided into groups based on the rates at which people developed or died from cancer in 2013, the most recent year for which incidence data are available.

The rates are the numbers out of 100,000 people who developed or died from cancer each year.

Incidence Rates by State The number of people who get cancer is called cancer incidence. In the United States, the rate of getting cancer varies from state to state.

*Rates are per 100,000 and are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

‡Rates are not shown if the state did not meet USCS publication criteria or if the state did not submit data to CDC.

The "Cancer and Deaths Dataset: 1990~2019 Globally" is a comprehensive dataset containing information on cancer incidence and mortality rates across the world from 1990 to 2019.

The dataset is an excellent resource for researchers, healthcare professionals, and policymakers who are interested in understanding the global burden of cancer and its impact on populations.

[ Total 9 file , 160 columns, All the countries, 30Years data ]

>In 2017, 9.6 million people are estimated to have died from the various forms of cancer. Every sixth death in the world is due to cancer, making it the second leading cause of death – second only to cardiovascular diseases.1

Progress against many other causes of deaths and demographic drivers of increasing population size, life expectancy and — particularly in higher-income countries — aging populations mean that the total number of cancer deaths continues to increase. This is a very personal topic to many: nearly everyone knows or has lost someone dear to them from this collection of diseases.

## Data vastness of this dataset: 01. annual-number-of-deaths-by-cause data. 02. total-cancer-deaths-by-type data. 03. cancer-death-rates-by-age data. 04. share-of-population-with-cancer-types data. 05. share-of-population-with-cancer data. 06. number-of-people-with-cancer-by-age data. 07. share-of-population-with-cancer-by-age data. 08. disease-burden-rates-by-cancer-types data. 09. cancer-deaths-rate-and-age-standardized-rate-index data.

This dataset presents the mortality rate from cancer among individuals under the age of 75 within the Birmingham and Solihull area. It captures the number of deaths attributed to all cancers (classified under ICD-10 codes C00 to C97) and expresses this as a directly age-standardised rate per 100,000 population. The data is structured in quinary age bands and is available for both single-year and three-year rolling averages, providing a comprehensive view of premature cancer mortality trends in the region.

Rationale Reducing premature mortality from cancer is a key public health priority. This indicator helps track progress in lowering the number of cancer-related deaths among people under 75, supporting efforts to improve early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies.

Numerator The numerator is the number of deaths from all cancers (ICD-10 codes C00 to C97) registered in the respective calendar years, for individuals aged under 75. These figures are aggregated into quinary age bands and sourced from the Death Register.

Denominator The denominator is the population of individuals under 75 years of age, also aggregated into quinary age bands. For single-year rates, the population for that year is used. For three-year rolling averages, the population-years are aggregated across the three years. The source of this data is the 2021 Census.

Caveats Data may not align exactly with published Office for National Statistics (ONS) figures due to differences in postcode lookup versions and the application of comparability ratios in Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) data. Users should be cautious when comparing this dataset with other national statistics.

External references Further information and related indicators can be found on the OHID Fingertips platform.

Localities ExplainedThis dataset contains data based on either the resident locality or registered locality of the patient, a distinction is made between resident locality and registered locality populations:Resident Locality refers to individuals who live within the defined geographic boundaries of the locality. These boundaries are aligned with official administrative areas such as wards and Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs).Registered Locality refers to individuals who are registered with GP practices that are assigned to a locality based on the Primary Care Network (PCN) they belong to. These assignments are approximate—PCNs are mapped to a locality based on the location of most of their GP surgeries. As a result, locality-registered patients may live outside the locality, sometimes even in different towns or cities.This distinction is important because some health indicators are only available at GP practice level, without information on where patients actually reside. In such cases, data is attributed to the locality based on GP registration, not residential address.

How to use the dataset

This dataset provides comprehensive US county-level cancer mortality and incidence rates from 2000 to 2014. It includes the mortality and incidence rate for each county, as well as whether the county met the objective of 45.5 deaths per 100,000 people. It also provides information on recent trends in death rates and average annual counts of cases over the five year period studied.

This dataset can be extremely useful to researchers looking to study trends in cancer death rates across counties. By using this data, researchers will be able to gain valuable insight into how different counties are performing in terms of providing treatment and prevention services for cancer patients and whether preventative measures and healthcare access are having an effect on reducing cancer mortality rates over time. This data can also be used to inform policy makers about counties needing more target prevention efforts or additional resources for providing better healthcare access within at risk communities.

When using this dataset, it is important to pay close attention to any qualitative columns such as “Recent Trend” or “Recent 5-Year Trend (2)” that may provide insights into long term changes that may not be readily apparent when using quantitative variables such as age-adjusted death rate or average deaths per year over shorter periods of time like one year or five years respectively. Additionally, when studying differences between different counties it is important to take note of any standard FIPS code differences that may indicate that data was collected by a different source with a difference methodology than what was used in other areas studied

Research Ideas

• Using this dataset, we can identify patterns in cancer mortality and incidence rates that are statistically significant to create treatment regimens or preventive measures specifically targeting those areas.
• This data can be useful for policymakers to target areas with elevated cancer mortality and incidence rates so they can allocate financial resources to these areas more efficiently.
• This dataset can be used to investigate which factors (such as pollution levels, access to medical care, genetic make up) may have an influence on the cancer mortality and incidence rates in different US counties

Death rate has been age-adjusted by the 2000 U.S. standard population. Single-year data are only available for Los Angeles County overall, Service Planning Areas, Supervisorial Districts, City of Los Angeles overall, and City of Los Angeles Council Districts.Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death in the US. People who smoke have the greatest risk of lung cancer, though lung cancer can also occur in people who have never smoked. Most cases are due to long-term tobacco smoking or exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke. Cities and communities can take an active role in curbing tobacco use and reducing lung cancer by adopting policies to regulate tobacco retail; reducing exposure to secondhand smoke in outdoor public spaces, such as parks, restaurants, or in multi-unit housing; and improving access to tobacco cessation programs and other preventive services.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

Average Age of Death – The average age at which a people in the given zip code die. Cancer Deaths – Cancer deaths refers to individuals who have died of cancer as the underlying cause. This is a rate per 100,000. Heart Disease Related Deaths – Heart Disease Related Deaths refers to individuals who have died of heart disease as the underlying cause. This is a rate per 100,000. COPD Related Deaths – COPD Related Deaths refers to individuals who have died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as the underlying cause. This is a rate per 100,000.

This dataset contains counts of deaths for California residents by ZIP Code based on information entered on death certificates. Final counts are derived from static data and include out-of-state deaths of California residents. The data tables include deaths of residents of California by ZIP Code of residence (by residence). The data are reported as totals, as well as stratified by age and gender. Deaths due to all causes (ALL) and selected underlying cause of death categories are provided. See temporal coverage for more information on which combinations are available for which years.

The cause of death categories are based solely on the underlying cause of death as coded by the International Classification of Diseases. The underlying cause of death is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as "the disease or injury which initiated the train of events leading directly to death, or the circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the fatal injury." It is a single value assigned to each death based on the details as entered on the death certificate. When more than one cause is listed, the order in which they are listed can affect which cause is coded as the underlying cause. This means that similar events could be coded with different underlying causes of death depending on variations in how they were entered. Consequently, while underlying cause of death provides a convenient comparison between cause of death categories, it may not capture the full impact of each cause of death as it does not always take into account all conditions contributing to the death.

Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD is the percent of 30-year-old-people who would die before their 70th birthday from any of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory disease, assuming that s/he would experience current mortality rates at every age and s/he would not die from any other cause of death (e.g., injuries or HIV/AIDS).

Background: The aggressive and heterogeneous nature of lung cancer has thwarted efforts to reduce mortality from this cancer through the use of screening. The advent of low-dose helical computed tomography (CT) altered the landscape of lung-cancer screening, with studies indicating that low-dose CT detects many tumors at early stages. The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) was conducted to determine whether screening with low-dose CT could reduce mortality from lung cancer.

Methods: From August 2002 through April 2004, we enrolled 53,454 persons at high risk for lung cancer at 33 U.S. medical centers. Participants were randomly assigned to undergo three annual screenings with either low-dose CT (26,722 participants) or single-view posteroanterior chest radiography (26,732). Data were collected on cases of lung cancer and deaths from lung cancer that occurred through December 31, 2009. This dataset includes the low-dose CT scans from 26,254 of these subjects, as well as digitized histopathology images from 451 subjects.

Results: The rate of adherence to screening was more than 90%. The rate of positive screening tests was 24.2% with low-dose CT and 6.9% with radiography over all three rounds. A total of 96.4% of the positive screening results in the low-dose CT group and 94.5% in the radiography group were false positive results. The incidence of lung cancer was 645 cases per 100,000 person-years (1060 cancers) in the low-dose CT group, as compared with 572 cases per 100,000 person-years (941 cancers) in the radiography group (rate ratio, 1.13; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03 to 1.23). There were 247 deaths from lung cancer per 100,000 person-years in the low-dose CT group and 309 deaths per 100,000 person-years in the radiography group, representing a relative reduction in mortality from lung cancer with low-dose CT screening of 20.0% (95% CI, 6.8 to 26.7; P=0.004). The rate of death from any cause was reduced in the low-dose CT group, as compared with the radiography group, by 6.7% (95% CI, 1.2 to 13.6; P=0.02).

Conclusions: Screening with the use of low-dose CT reduces mortality from lung cancer. (Funded by the National Cancer Institute; National Lung Screening Trial ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00047385).

Data Availability: A summary of the National Lung Screening Trial and its available datasets are provided on the Cancer Data Access System (CDAS). CDAS is maintained by Information Management System (IMS), contracted by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) as keepers and statistical analyzers of the NLST trial data. The full clinical data set from NLST is available through CDAS. Users of TCIA can download without restriction a publicly distributable subset of that clinical data, along with the CT and Histopathology images collected during the trial. (These previously were restricted.)

This dataset provides insights into one-year survival rates from all cancers, serving as a key indicator of early cancer outcomes. It measures the proportion of individuals diagnosed with an invasive cancer who survive for at least one year following their diagnosis. The dataset includes all invasive tumours classified under ICD-10 codes C00 to C97, excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (C44). It supports analysis across different population groups and geographies, including ethnicity, deprivation levels, and the Birmingham and Solihull (BSol) area.

Rationale

Improving one-year survival rates is a critical goal in cancer care, as it reflects the effectiveness of early diagnosis and initial treatment. This indicator helps monitor progress in reducing early mortality from cancer and supports targeted interventions to improve outcomes.

Numerator

The numerator includes individuals who were diagnosed with a specific type of cancer and died from the same type of cancer within one year of diagnosis. Only invasive cancers are included, as defined by ICD-10 codes C00 to C97, excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (C44). Data is sourced from the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS).

Denominator

The denominator comprises all individuals diagnosed with an invasive cancer (ICD-10 codes C00 to C97, excluding C44) within a five-year period. This data is also sourced from the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS).

Caveats

This dataset uses a simplified methodology that differs from the national calculation of one-year cancer survival. As a result, the figures presented here may not align with nationally published statistics. However, this approach enables the provision of survival data disaggregated by ethnicity, deprivation, and local geographies such as BSol, which is not always possible with national data.
