    About this dataset

    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.

    County Cancer Death Rates

    County-level cancer death rates with related variables

    By Noah Rippner [source]

    About this dataset

    This dataset provides comprehensive information on county-level cancer death and incidence rates, as well as various related variables. It includes data on age-adjusted death rates, average deaths per year, recent trends in cancer death rates, recent 5-year trends in death rates, and average annual counts of cancer deaths or incidence. The dataset also includes the federal information processing standards (FIPS) codes for each county.

    Additionally, the dataset indicates whether each county met the objective of a targeted death rate of 45.5. The recent trend in cancer deaths or incidence is also captured for analysis purposes.

    The purpose of the death.csv file within this dataset is to offer detailed information specifically concerning county-level cancer death rates and related variables. On the other hand, the incd.csv file contains data on county-level cancer incidence rates and additional relevant variables.

    To provide more context and understanding about the included data points, there is a separate file named cancer_data_notes.csv. This file serves to provide informative notes and explanations regarding the various aspects of the cancer data used in this dataset.

    Please note that this particular description provides an overview for a linear regression walkthrough using this dataset based on Python programming language. It highlights how to source and import the data properly before moving into data preparation steps such as exploratory analysis. The walkthrough further covers model selection and important model diagnostics measures.

    It's essential to bear in mind that this example serves as an initial attempt at creating a multivariate Ordinary Least Squares regression model using these datasets from various sources like cancer.gov along with US Census American Community Survey data. This baseline model allows easy comparisons with future iterations intended for improvements or refinements.

    Important columns found within this extensively documented Kaggle dataset include County names along with their corresponding FIPS codes—a standardized coding system by Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). Moreover,Met Objective of 45.5? (1) column denotes whether a specific county achieved the targeted objective of a death rate of 45.5 or not.

    Overall, this dataset aims to offer valuable insights into county-level cancer death and incidence rates across various regions, providing policymakers, researchers, and healthcare professionals with essential information for analysis and decision-making purposes

    How to use the dataset

    Description

    Population based cancer incidence rates were abstracted from National Cancer Institute, State Cancer Profiles for all available counties in the United States for which data were available. This is a national county-level database of cancer data that are collected by state public health surveillance systems. All-site cancer is defined as any type of cancer that is captured in the state registry data, though non-melanoma skin cancer is not included. All-site age-adjusted cancer incidence rates were abstracted separately for males and females. County-level annual age-adjusted all-site cancer incidence rates for years 2006–2010 were available for 2687 of 3142 (85.5%) counties in the U.S. Counties for which there are fewer than 16 reported cases in a specific area-sex-race category are suppressed to ensure confidentiality and stability of rate estimates; this accounted for 14 counties in our study. Two states, Kansas and Virginia, do not provide data because of state legislation and regulations which prohibit the release of county level data to outside entities. Data from Michigan does not include cases diagnosed in other states because data exchange agreements prohibit the release of data to third parties. Finally, state data is not available for three states, Minnesota, Ohio, and Washington. The age-adjusted average annual incidence rate for all counties was 453.7 per 100,000 persons. We selected 2006–2010 as it is subsequent in time to the EQI exposure data which was constructed to represent the years 2000–2005. We also gathered data for the three leading causes of cancer for males (lung, prostate, and colorectal) and females (lung, breast, and colorectal). The EQI was used as an exposure metric as an indicator of cumulative environmental exposures at the county-level representing the period 2000 to 2005. A complete description of the datasets used in the EQI are provided in Lobdell et al. and methods used for index construction are described by Messer et al. The EQI was developed for the period 2000– 2005 because it was the time period for which the most recent data were available when index construction was initiated. The EQI includes variables representing each of the environmental domains. The air domain includes 87 variables representing criteria and hazardous air pollutants. The water domain includes 80 variables representing overall water quality, general water contamination, recreational water quality, drinking water quality, atmospheric deposition, drought, and chemical contamination. The land domain includes 26 variables representing agriculture, pesticides, contaminants, facilities, and radon. The built domain includes 14 variables representing roads, highway/road safety, public transit behavior, business environment, and subsidized housing environment. The sociodemographic environment includes 12 variables representing socioeconomics and crime. This dataset is not publicly accessible because: EPA cannot release personally identifiable information regarding living individuals, according to the Privacy Act and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This dataset contains information about human research subjects. Because there is potential to identify individual participants and disclose personal information, either alone or in combination with other datasets, individual level data are not appropriate to post for public access. Restricted access may be granted to authorized persons by contacting the party listed. It can be accessed through the following means: Human health data are not available publicly. EQI data are available at: https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/NHEERL/EQI. Format: Data are stored as csv files. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Jagai, J., L. Messer, K. Rappazzo , C. Gray, S. Grabich , and D. Lobdell. County-level environmental quality and associations with cancer incidence#. Cancer.

    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

    This dataset contains Cancer Incidence data for Breast Cancer (Late Stage^) including: Age-Adjusted Rate, Confidence Interval, Average Annual Count, and Trend field information for US States for the average 5 year span from 2016 to 2020.Data are for females segmented by age (All Ages, Ages Under 50, Ages 50 & Over, Ages Under 65, and Ages 65 & Over), with field names and aliases describing the sex and age group tabulated.For more information, visit statecancerprofiles.cancer.govData NotationsState Cancer Registries may provide more current or more local data.TrendRising when 95% confidence interval of average annual percent change is above 0.Stable when 95% confidence interval of average annual percent change includes 0.Falling when 95% confidence interval of average annual percent change is below 0.† Incidence rates (cases per 100,000 population per year) are age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups: <1, 1-4, 5-9, ... , 80-84, 85+). Rates are for invasive cancer only (except for bladder cancer which is invasive and in situ) or unless otherwise specified. Rates calculated using SEER*Stat. Population counts for denominators are based on Census populations as modified by NCI. The US Population Data File is used for SEER and NPCR incidence rates.‡ Incidence Trend data come from different sources. Due to different years of data availability, most of the trends are AAPCs based on APCs but some are APCs calculated in SEER*Stat. Please refer to the source for each area for additional information.Rates and trends are computed using different standards for malignancy. For more information see malignant.^ Late Stage is defined as cases determined to be regional or distant. Due to changes in stage coding, Combined Summary Stage (2004+) is used for data from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) databases and Merged Summary Stage is used for data from National Program of Cancer Registries databases. Due to the increased complexity with staging, other staging variables maybe used if necessary.Data Source Field Key(1) Source: National Program of Cancer Registries and Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results SEER*Stat Database - United States Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Cancer Institute.

    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).

    The main idea for uploading this dataset is to practice data analysis with my students, as I am working in college and want my student to train our studying ideas in a big dataset, It may be not up to date and I mention the collecting years, but it is a good resource of data to practice

    Description

    ObjectiveTriple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a more aggressive subtype resistant to conventional treatments with a poorer prognosis. This study was to update the status of TNBC and the temporal changes of its incidence rate in the US.MethodsWomen diagnosed with breast cancer during 2011–2019 were obtained from the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) and Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Program SEER*Stat Database which covers the entire population of the US. The TNBC incidence and its temporal trends by race, age, region (state) and disease stage were determined during the period.ResultsA total of 238,848 (or 8.8%) TNBC women were diagnosed during the study period. TNBC occurred disproportionally higher in women of Non-Hispanic Black, younger ages, with cancer at a distant stage or poorly/undifferentiated. The age adjusted incidence rate (AAIR) for TNBC in all races decreased from 14.8 per 100,000 in 2011 to 14.0 in 2019 (annual percentage change (APC) = −0.6, P = 0.024). Incidence rates of TNBC significantly decreased with APCs of −0.8 in Non-Hispanic White women, −1.3 in West and −0.7 in Northeastern regions. Women with TNBC at the age of 35–49, 50–59, and 60–69 years, and the disease at the regional stage displayed significantly decreased trends. Among state levels, Mississippi (20.6) and Louisiana (18.9) had the highest, while Utah (9.1) and Montana (9.6) had the lowest AAIRs in 2019. New Hampshire and Indiana had significant and highest decreases, while Louisiana and Arkansas had significant and largest increases in AAIR. In individual races, TNBC displayed disparities in temporal trends among age groups, regions and disease stages. Surprisingly, Non-Hispanic White and Hispanic TNBC women (0–34 years), and Non-Hispanic Black women (≥70 years) during the entire period, as well as Asian or Pacific Islander women in the South region had increased trends between 2011 and 2017.ConclusionOur study demonstrates an overall decreased trend of TNBC incidence in the past decade. Its incidence displayed disparities among races, age groups, regions and disease stages. Special attention is needed for a heavy burden in Non-Hispanic Black and increased trends in certain groups.

    Description

    BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) incidence rates have increased in younger individuals worldwide. We examined the most recent early- and late-onset CRC rates for the US.MethodsAge-standardized incidence rates (ASIR, per 100,000) of CRC were calculated using the US Cancer Statistics Database’s high-quality population-based cancer registry data from the entire US population. Results were cross-classified by age (20-49 [early-onset] and 50-74 years [late-onset]), race/ethnicity (non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic, American Indian/Alaskan Native, Asian/Pacific Islander), sex, anatomic location (proximal, distal, rectal), and histology (adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine).ResultsDuring 2001 through 2018, early-onset CRC rates significantly increased among American Indians/Alaskan Natives, Hispanics, and Whites. Compared to Whites, early-onset CRC rates are now 21% higher in American Indians/Alaskan Natives and 6% higher in Blacks. Rates of early-onset colorectal neuroendocrine tumors have increased in Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics; early-onset colorectal neuroendocrine tumor rates are 2-times higher in Blacks compared to Whites. Late-onset colorectal adenocarcinoma rates are decreasing, while late-onset colorectal neuroendocrine tumor rates are increasing, in all racial/ethnic groups. Late-onset CRC rates remain 29% higher in Blacks and 15% higher in American Indians/Alaskan Natives compared to Whites. Overall, CRC incidence was higher in men than women, but incidence of early-onset distal colon cancer was higher in women.ConclusionsThe early-onset CRC disparity between Blacks and Whites has decreased, due to increasing rates in Whites—rates in Blacks have remained stable. However, rates of colorectal neuroendocrine tumors are increasing in Blacks. Blacks and American Indians/Alaskan Natives have the highest rates of both early- and late-onset CRC.ImpactOngoing prevention efforts must ensure access to and uptake of CRC screening for Blacks and American Indians/Alaskan Natives.

    Description

    Cervical Cancer Risk Factors for Biopsy: This Dataset is Obtained from UCI Repository and kindly acknowledged! This file contains a List of Risk Factors for Cervical Cancer leading to a Biopsy Examination! About 11,000 new cases of invasive cervical cancer are diagnosed each year in the U.S. However, the number of new cervical cancer cases has been declining steadily over the past decades. Although it is the most preventable type of cancer, each year cervical cancer kills about 4,000 women in the U.S. and about 300,000 women worldwide. In the United States, cervical cancer mortality rates plunged by 74% from 1955 - 1992 thanks to increased screening and early detection with the Pap test. AGE Fifty percent of cervical cancer diagnoses occur in women ages 35 - 54, and about 20% occur in women over 65 years of age. The median age of diagnosis is 48 years. About 15% of women develop cervical cancer between the ages of 20 - 30. Cervical cancer is extremely rare in women younger than age 20. However, many young women become infected with multiple types of human papilloma virus, which then can increase their risk of getting cervical cancer in the future. Young women with early abnormal changes who do not have regular examinations are at high risk for localized cancer by the time they are age 40, and for invasive cancer by age 50. SOCIOECONOMIC AND ETHNIC FACTORS Although the rate of cervical cancer has declined among both Caucasian and African-American women over the past decades, it remains much more prevalent in African-Americans -- whose death rates are twice as high as Caucasian women. Hispanic American women have more than twice the risk of invasive cervical cancer as Caucasian women, also due to a lower rate of screening. These differences, however, are almost certainly due to social and economic differences. Numerous studies report that high poverty levels are linked with low screening rates. In addition, lack of health insurance, limited transportation, and language difficulties hinder a poor woman’s access to screening services. HIGH SEXUAL ACTIVITY Human papilloma virus (HPV) is the main risk factor for cervical cancer. In adults, the most important risk factor for HPV is sexual activity with an infected person. Women most at risk for cervical cancer are those with a history of multiple sexual partners, sexual intercourse at age 17 years or younger, or both. A woman who has never been sexually active has a very low risk for developing cervical cancer. Sexual activity with multiple partners increases the likelihood of many other sexually transmitted infections (chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis).Studies have found an association between chlamydia and cervical cancer risk, including the possibility that chlamydia may prolong HPV infection. FAMILY HISTORY Women have a higher risk of cervical cancer if they have a first-degree relative (mother, sister) who has had cervical cancer. USE OF ORAL CONTRACEPTIVES Studies have reported a strong association between cervical cancer and long-term use of oral contraception (OC). Women who take birth control pills for more than 5 - 10 years appear to have a much higher risk HPV infection (up to four times higher) than those who do not use OCs. (Women taking OCs for fewer than 5 years do not have a significantly higher risk.) The reasons for this risk from OC use are not entirely clear. Women who use OCs may be less likely to use a diaphragm, condoms, or other methods that offer some protection against sexual transmitted diseases, including HPV. Some research also suggests that the hormones in OCs might help the virus enter the genetic material of cervical cells. HAVING MANY CHILDREN Studies indicate that having many children increases the risk for developing cervical cancer, particularly in women infected with HPV. SMOKING Smoking is associated with a higher risk for precancerous changes (dysplasia) in the cervix and for progression to invasive cervical cancer, especially for women infected with HPV. IMMUNOSUPPRESSION Women with weak immune systems, (such as those with HIV / AIDS), are more susceptible to acquiring HPV. Immunocompromised patients are also at higher risk for having cervical precancer develop rapidly into invasive cancer. DIETHYLSTILBESTROL (DES) From 1938 - 1971, diethylstilbestrol (DES), an estrogen-related drug, was widely prescribed to pregnant women to help prevent miscarriages. The daughters of these women face a higher risk for cervical cancer. DES is no longer prsecribed.
