- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: This study aims to determine the survival rates for children and adolescents aged 0-19 years diagnosed with childhood cancer and to evaluate the associated factors for childhood cancer survival in Brunei Darussalam. Methods: The analysis was based on de-identified data of 263 childhood cancer for the period 2002 to 2017 retrieved from a population-based cancer registry. Overall survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis, using the log-rank test, was used to examine the differences in survival between groups. Multivariate analysis, using the Cox Proportional Hazard (PH) regression model, was used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and select the significant associated factors for childhood cancer patients’ survival. Results: The overall 1-, 5- and 10-year survival rates for all childhood cancers combined were 79.4%, 70.0% and 68.8% respectively. The most common types of cancer were leukemias, malignant epithelial neoplasms, lymphomas and tumours of the central nervous system (CNS). The 5-year survival estimates were highest for malignant epithelial neoplasms (84.2%) while the lowest was tumours of the CNS (44.1%). Log rank tests showed significant differences in childhood cancer patients’ survival between tumour types and period of diagnosis. In the Cox PH analysis, the presence of lymphomas, gonodal and germ cell neoplasms, and malignant epithelial neoplasms compared to leukemia; children aged 1-4 and 5-9 years compared to adolescents aged 15-19 years; and periods of diagnosis in 2002-2006 and 2007-2011 compared to 2012-2017 were significantly associated with lower hazard of death in this study. Conclusion: This study provides a baseline measurement of childhood cancer survival for monitoring and evaluation of cancer control programmes, to allow planning of cancer control program strategies such as surveillance, screening, and treatment to improve childhood survival rates in Brunei Darussalam.

- چکیده انگلیسی: Introduction: Colorectal cancers (CRC) continues to increase worldwide and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. CRC can be prevented through early detection using several modalities. However, like any screening program participation remains suboptimal. This study assessed the factors associated with participation in a stool based CRC screening that was carried out as part of an Integrated Health Screening Survey for civil servants. Materials and Methods: Civil servants who participated in a health survey (N=10,756, mean age 48.08 ± 5.26 years old) were studied. Demographic factors (gender, age groups, marital status, employment status, body mass index [BMI] categories, smoking status, personal and family history of cancers) were analyzed to assess for features associated with willingness to participate in this fecal immunohistochemistry test (FIT) screening for CRC. Comorbid conditions studied were cardiac disease, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, hypertension and stroke. Multivariate analysis was performed to evaluate variables associated with participation in CRC screening programme. Results: Of the invited 10,756 participants, 7,360 returned a stool specimen giving a participation rate of 68.4%. Those who participated were significantly older (60 years [77.8%], p0.05). Multivariate analyses showed that older age (45-49, 50-54, 55-59 and >60) and employment status (professional) remained significant factors associated with participation in a stool based CRC screening. Conclusions: Our study showed that older age and professional employment status were significantly associated with willingness to participate in a stool based CRC screening.
