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.

Exploring County-Level Correlations in Cancer Rates and Trends

A Multivariate Ordinary Least Squares Regression Model

By Noah Rippner [source]

About this dataset

This dataset offers a unique opportunity to examine the pattern and trends of county-level cancer rates in the United States at the individual county level. Using data from cancer.gov and the US Census American Community Survey, this dataset allows us to gain insight into how age-adjusted death rate, average deaths per year, and recent trends vary between counties – along with other key metrics like average annual counts, met objectives of 45.5?, recent trends (2) in death rates, etc., captured within our deep multi-dimensional dataset. We are able to build linear regression models based on our data to determine correlations between variables that can help us better understand cancers prevalence levels across different counties over time - making it easier to target health initiatives and resources accurately when necessary or desired

How to use the dataset

This kaggle dataset provides county-level datasets from the US Census American Community Survey and cancer.gov for exploring correlations between county-level cancer rates, trends, and mortality statistics. This dataset contains records from all U.S counties concerning the age-adjusted death rate, average deaths per year, recent trend (2) in death rates, average annual count of cases detected within 5 years, and whether or not an objective of 45.5 (1) was met in the county associated with each row in the table.

To use this dataset to its fullest potential you need to understand how to perform simple descriptive analytics which includes calculating summary statistics such as mean, median or other numerical values; summarizing categorical variables using frequency tables; creating data visualizations such as charts and histograms; applying linear regression or other machine learning techniques such as support vector machines (SVMs), random forests or neural networks etc.; differentiating between supervised vs unsupervised learning techniques etc.; reviewing diagnostics tests to evaluate your models; interpreting your findings; hypothesizing possible reasons and patterns discovered during exploration made through data visualizations ; Communicating and conveying results found via effective presentation slides/documents etc.. Having this understanding will enable you apply different methods of analysis on this data set accurately ad effectively.

Once these concepts are understood you are ready start exploring this data set by first importing it into your visualization software either tableau public/ desktop version/Qlikview / SAS Analytical suite/Python notebooks for building predictive models by loading specified packages based on usage like Scikit Learn if Python is used among others depending on what tool is used . Secondly a brief description of the entire table's column structure has been provided above . Statistical operations can be carried out with simple queries after proper knowledge of basic SQL commands is attained just like queries using sub sets can also be performed with good command over selecting columns while specifying conditions applicable along with sorting operations being done based on specific attributes as required leading up towards writing python codes needed when parsing specific portion of data desired grouping / aggregating different categories before performing any kind of predictions / models can also activated create post joining few tables possible , when ever necessary once again varying across tools being used Thereby diving deep into analyzing available features determined randomly thus creating correlation matrices figures showing distribution relationships using correlation & covariance matrixes , thus making evaluations deducing informative facts since revealing trends identified through corresponding scatter plots from a given metric gathered from appropriate fields!

Research Ideas

• Building a predictive cancer incidence model based on county-level demographic data to identify high-risk areas and target public health interventions.

The United States Cancer Statistics (USCS) online databases in WONDER provide cancer incidence and mortality data for the United States for the years since 1999, by year, state and metropolitan areas (MSA), age group, race, ethnicity, sex, childhood cancer classifications and cancer site. Report case counts, deaths, crude and age-adjusted incidence and death rates, and 95% confidence intervals for rates. The USCS data are the official federal statistics on cancer incidence from registries having high-quality data and cancer mortality statistics for 50 states and the District of Columbia. USCS are produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI), in collaboration with the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR). Mortality data are provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), National Vital Statistics System (NVSS).

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
