Statistics by Country for Rectal cancer
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Rectal cancer:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Rectal cancer are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Rectal cancer statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Rectal cancer in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Rectal cancer: The word 'prevalence' of Rectal cancer usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Rectal cancer at any given time (i.e. people with Rectal cancer). The term 'incidence' of Rectal cancer means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Rectal cancer diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Rectal cancer). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Incidence (annual) of Rectal cancer: 40,570 new cases for rectum cancer in the US 2004 (Cancer Facts and Figures, American Cancer Society, 2004)
Incidence Rate for Rectal cancer: approx 1 in 6,704 or 0.01% or 40,569 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Rectal cancer to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Rectal cancer to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Rectal cancer are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Rectal cancer in any region:
