- چکیده انگلیسی: Since 2000 cancer has been the leading cause of death in Thailand. In response to this challenge, the National Cancer Institute of Thailand (NCI), in collaboration with other bodies, has developed and promoted the National Cancer Control Program (NCCP) to provide appropriate policies and practice for the prevention, early detection and treatment of cancer, with optimal supportive care. With plans strongly supported by the Ministry of Public Health, the NCCP envisages integration into the health care system in 6 strategic areas: (1) cancer informatics; (2) primary prevention; (3) early detection; (4) treatment; (5) palliative care; and (6) cancer control research. For this purpose 7 regional cancer hospitals have been established to aid the NCI in conducting the NCCP. Cancer registration is a high priority, with 31.2% of the population now covered by quality registries. In primary prevention, there is a focus on awareness, lifestyle improvement, anti-smoking and alcohol control programs, vaccination, and Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) control. Screening programs for cervical, breast and colorectal cancer are underway to increase early detection. Priority is being given to facilities for chemotherapy and radiotherapy, as well as palliative care. Cancer control research encompasses international cooperation and participation in training programs, especially for development of cancer registration and other aspects of cancer control programs in South-East Asia, not least as an IARC Collaborating Center.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective: Cancer-registry data are crucial for definingcancer incidence rates for use in setting service priorities
and monitoringservice effects. This applies in Thailand where cancer is the leading cause of death and service needs
are high. The Bangkok Cancer Registry (population-based) was established in 1990to determine cancer incidence rates
for Bangkok. This proved difficult, however, because the Bangkokpopulation (>8million) fluctuates with numbers of
temporary visitors, many of whom visit Bangkok temporarily for services. If these visitors are mis-categorized as
usual residents, cancer incidence rateswould be inflated. During 2013-2015, residential addresses on the Registry
were cross-checked against official addresses on the National Civil Registration records of the Ministry of Interior.
The effectsof this cross-checking on incidence rates are discussed. Methods: Residential addresses recorded on
the Registry for cancer diagnoses in 2013-2015 were corrected using official Ministry data. Effects on numbers of
recorded cancers and crude and directly age-standardized rates (World Population) were determined. Results: Of 44,813
cancer casesdiagnosed and recorded on the Registryduring 2013-2015, 36,327 (81.1%) had an official Bangkok
address. When limiting analyses to these cases, the crude incidencefor all cancer sites combined reduced by 18.9%
(19.7% for males and 18.3% for females). Corresponding reductions in age-standardized incidence rates were 20.0%
for males and 18.8% for females. These reductions varied for common cancer sites:in males,from 14.8% for lung to
25.9% for colorectal cancer; and in females, from 12.9% for lung to 24.0% for cervical cancer. Conclusions: These
differences are considered sufficient in magnitude to justifyroutine use of official residential data when calculating
cancer incidence rates for Bangkok. If these rates are to be compared with comparable rates for other Asian citiesthat
serve broader populations, equivalent methodologies for determining residential status would be needed for all cities.- انتشار مقاله: 26-02-1397
