Abstract

Access to accurate statistical data is paramount in the pursuit of effective cancer control activities, including research, policy development, and clinical care. This paper presents a comprehensive statistical report on the incidence, mortality, survival, and treatment of major digestive organ cancers, including those of the esophagus, stomach, colon, rectum, liver, extrahepatic biliary tract, and pancreas, in Japan. We compiled data from the National Cancer Center's “Cancer Information Services” and government “e-Stat” websites and offered a succinct overview of basic statistics by using tables and graphical presentations. Our findings underscore the critical role of the National Cancer Registry introduced by the Cancer Registry Act of 2016, which mandates hospitals across Japan to report cancer cases. This system ensures more accurate incidence statistics. Mortality data sourced from the National Vital Statistics System and survival rates derived from hospital-based cancer registries offer insights into the outcomes and efficacy of treatment modalities. These data indicate a downward trend in mortality for stomach and liver cancers and stable or declining rates for other cancers except pancreatic cancer, which has the lowest survival rate. Treatment patterns indicate an increase in endoscopic procedures for esophageal and stomach cancers, with stable treatment approaches for colorectal cancer. This statistical overview aims to improve the understanding and inform research, policy, and clinical decisions in the field of digestive organ cancers.

消化器官癌症的发病率、死亡率、存活率和治疗统计--2024 年日本癌症统计。
获取准确的统计数据对于开展有效的癌症控制活动(包括研究、政策制定和临床治疗)至关重要。本文介绍了日本主要消化器官癌症(包括食道癌、胃癌、结肠癌、直肠癌、肝癌、肝外胆道癌和胰腺癌)的发病率、死亡率、存活率和治疗情况的综合统计报告。我们从国立癌症中心的 "癌症信息服务 "和政府的 "e-Stat "网站上收集了数据,并通过表格和图表的形式简明扼要地概述了基本统计数据。我们的研究结果强调了 2016 年《癌症登记法》引入的国家癌症登记系统的关键作用,该系统要求日本全国的医院报告癌症病例。该系统确保了更准确的发病率统计数据。国家生命统计系统提供的死亡率数据和医院癌症登记处提供的存活率有助于了解治疗方法的结果和疗效。这些数据表明,胃癌和肝癌的死亡率呈下降趋势,除存活率最低的胰腺癌外,其他癌症的死亡率稳定或下降。治疗模式表明,食管癌和胃癌的内窥镜手术有所增加,结直肠癌的治疗方法保持稳定。本统计综述旨在加深人们对消化器官癌症的了解,并为研究、政策和临床决策提供参考。
