This statistic shows the amount of registrations of newly diagnosed cases of stomach cancer in England in 2022, by age group. With a total of 447 cases in 2022, the age group most affected by stomach cancer in terms of the number of cases was men aged 75 to 79 years. It should be noted that the number of people in England in each age group varies and is therefore not necessarily a reflection of susceptibility to this cancer.

In 2019, nearly 8.2 percent of all men, as well as more than 5.5 percent of all women diagnosed with stomach cancer were between 65 to 69 years old. Meanwhile, only 0.04 percent of all boys and 0.02 percent of all girls and teens under 19 years old had the same condition.

As of 2024, around 72,900 people were living with a diagnosis of stomach cancer in Italy. Most of them were men, with 40,300 cases. The graph presented shows the number of people living with a diagnosis of stomach cancer in Italy as of 2024, by gender.

In 2020, the mortality rate for stomach cancer was 3.2 per 100,000 population among females in Canada. This statistic displays the age-standardized mortality rate of stomach cancers among females in Canada between 1988 and 2020 with forecasts from 2021 to 2023.

This statistic depicts age-standardized rates of stomach cancer among males in Canada between 1988 and 2013, with a forecast for 2014 to 2017. In 1990, the incidence rate for stomach cancer cases reached 21.2 per 100,000 population among males. Cancer is one of the leading causes of premature death and almost half the individuals in Canada will develop this disease during their lifetime.

This statistic shows the number of deaths due to stomach cancer in the United States from 1999 to 2021. The highest number of deaths within the given period due to stomach cancer was 12,711, reported in 1999.

Aizawl district in the eastern state of Mizoram in India had age adjusted incidence rate of stomach cancer cases among male of over 44 cases per million male adults between the years 2012 and 2016. Whereas, the age incidence rate of stomach cancer among women in that region was over 21 cases per million females in the country.

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.

Tumour characteristics of stomach cancer case participants.

In 2021, a total of 8 231 deaths from stomach cancer were registered in Italy. The Italian macro-region in which the most deaths from stomach cancer occurred was the North-West. As a matter of fact, around 2.4 thousand deaths from this cause were recorded in this area. Deaths from stomach cancer seemed to be more common among male individuals than among female ones. This statistic breaks down the number of deaths from stomach cancer in Italy in 2021, by gender and geographic area.

Background: Gastric cancer survival rates in Africa are low as many cases are diagnosed late. Currently, there are no inexpensive, non-invasive and simple techniques that can be employed in poor resource settings for early case detection. In this study, we explored the possibility using blood in gastric juice as a screening tool to identify patients requiring referral for endoscopy.

Methods: The study was conducted at the University Teaching Hospital endoscopy unit in Lusaka, Zambia. During endoscopy, gastric juice was aspirated and the pH determined using pH paper test strips. The presence of blood was tested using urinalysis reagent strips.

Results: We enrolled 276 patients; 147(53%) were female and median age was 49 years (IQR 40-64 years). The presence of blood was associated with mucosal lesions, [OR 2.1; 95% CI 1.2-3.7, P=0.004]. It was also associated with gastric cancer, [OR 6.7; 95% CI 2-35, P=0.0005], even at 1:10 and 1:100 dilutions, [OR 5.4; 95% CI 2.3-13.8, P<0.0001] and [OR 9.1; 95% CI 3.5-23, P<0.0001] respectively. The sensitivity for gastric cancer detection using blood in gastric juice was 91% and the specificity was 41%. Analysis using the intensity of blood in gastric juice yielded an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.78; 95% CI 0.71-0.86 with a sensitivity of 79% and a specificity of 77%.

Conclusions: The presence of blood in gastric juice is associated with gastric mucosal lesions. It has a high sensitivity but low specificity for gastric cancer detection.

Years of life lost due to mortality from stomach cancer (ICD-10 C16). Years of life lost (YLL) is a measure of premature mortality. Its primary purpose is to compare the relative importance of different causes of premature death within a particular population and it can therefore be used by health planners to define priorities for the prevention of such deaths. It can also be used to compare the premature mortality experience of different populations for a particular cause of death. The concept of years of life lost is to estimate the length of time a person would have lived had they not died prematurely. By inherently including the age at which the death occurs, rather than just the fact of its occurrence, the calculation is an attempt to better quantify the burden, or impact, on society from the specified cause of mortality.
