Pleural mesothelioma: a descriptive analysis based on a case-control study and mortality data in Ile de France, 1987-1990.
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL MEDICINE(1994)
摘要
Incidence rates of pleural mesothelioma in Ile de France were examined for the period 1987-1990, on the basis of information collected in a case-control study. This study was designed to include all new cases of pleural mesothelioma occurring in the region. On the other hand, mortality rates from pleural malignancies in the same region were examined on the basis of death certificates recorded by INSERM for the same period. A large difference was found between the two types of data. Average annual incidence rates were 7.5 per million among men and 1.6 per million among women. Average annual mortality rates due to primary pleural malignancies were 25.2 per million in males and 8.9 per million in females. This study confirms discordances between incidence and mortality data for pleural malignancies already reported in several countries. However, contrasting with some previous reports, the annual mortality rate from pleural malignancies was higher than the incidence rate of mesothelioma in this study. This emphasizes the usefulness of a specific investigation to explain such discordances, prior to comparison of data from one country to another. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
