The Burden of Lung Cancer in Women Compared With Men in the US

Cette étude analyse l'incidence du cancer du poumon aux Etats-Unis par âge et en fonction du sexe

A previous study from the American Cancer Society reported higher lung cancer incidence in women than men younger than 50 years in the US, a reversal in the historically higher burden in men that was not fully explained by smoking differences. It is unknown, however, whether this pattern has changed in contemporary birth cohorts. Herein, we extended the previous analysis with an additional 5 years of data to monitor shifts in lung cancer incidence by age and sex.
